Some salts, although containing two different metallic elements, give test for one of them in solution. Such salts are:

  • A. complex salt
  • B. double salt
  • C. normal salt
  • D. none of these

Step-by-step solution

Complex salts contain a complex ion that does not dissociate completely in solution, so only the counter ion (one metallic element) is detected. Double salts dissociate into simple ions, giving tests for both metals.
