Explanation
pure water is a very good insulator, but if we add sodium chloride we create ions to form an electrolytic solution.
NaCl(s)+H2O(l)⟶Na+(aq)+Cl−(aq)+H2O(l)
Therefore, NaCl is an electrolyte.
Correct Answer: Options C and D.
Explanation:
1. BaCl_{2} and Ba(NO_{3})_{2}Both have Ba^{2+} as a common ion.BaCl_{2} is a salt of Ba(OH)_{2} and HCl. Ba(NO_{3})_{2} is a salt of Ba(OH)_{2} and HNO_{3}. Since all of these are strong acids and bases, these two species don’t exhibit the common ion effect.
2. NaCl and HClBoth have Cl^{-} as a common ion.NaCl is a salt of Na(OH) and HCl. HCl is a strong acid itself. Since all of these are strong acids and bases, these two species don’t exhibit the common ion effect.
3. NH_{4}OH and NH_{4}ClBoth have NH_{4}^{+} as a common ion.NH_{4}OH and NH_{4}Cl are both weak species since NH_{4}^{+} is a weak species. Therefore, these two can exhibit the common ion effect.
4. AgCN and KCNBoth have CN^{-} as a common ion.KCN is a salt of a weak acid and strong base and AgCN is a sparingly soluble salt, they have CN^- ion in common. So they will show the common ion effect.
Hence, Options C and D will show the common ion effect.
