Solution

The correct option is B Zn(II)
Upon treatment with ammonical H2S, the metal ion that precipitates as a sulfide is Zn(II). The chemical equation for this is as follows:
Zn(II)+H2S(ammonical)ZnS+2H
As, NH4OH+H2S gas, is the group reagent for the Zn(II) ion. So, only this can give the precipitate with ammonical H2S.
