On passing a current of HCl gas in a saturated solution of NaCl, the solubility of NaCl?
Decreases
When HCl gas is passed through a saturated NaCl solution, the number of Cl−1 ions increases. The increased number of Cl−1 interact with Na+1 ions to form crystallised NaCl. Thus, the solubility of NaCl decreases and it is recovered in crystalline form. This phenomenon is called "common ion effect".
