Match List-I (Solid salt treated with dil. $H_2SO_4$) with List-II (Anion detected) and choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Column I

  • A. Effervescence of colourless gas
  • B. Gas with smell of rotten egg
  • C. Gas with pungent smell
  • D. Brown fumes

Column II

  • I. NO2-
  • II. CO3^2-
  • III. S2-
  • IV. SO3^2-

Correct answer: A → II, B → III, C → IV, D → I

Detailed Solution

Effervescence of colourless gas indicates $CO_3^{2-}$ (A-II); gas with smell of rotten egg indicates $S^{2-}$ (B-III); gas with pungent smell indicates $SO_3^{2-}$ (C-IV); brown fumes indicate $NO_2^-$ / $NO_3^-$ (D-I).
