Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(+7\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The group reagent \(H_2S\) in the presence of \(NH_4OH\) is used for the precipitation of Group IV cations in qualitative analysis. Among the given ions, \(Mn^{2+}\) belongs to Group IV and is precipitated as \(MnS\). \(Pb^{2+}\) and \(Cu^{2+}\) belong to Group II and are…
