If Fe3+ and Cr3+ both are present in group III of qualitative analysis, then distinction can be made by:
  1. addition of NH4OH in presence of NH4Cl when only Fe(OH)3 is precipitated
  2. addition of NH4OH in presence of NH4Cl when Cr(OH)3 and Fe(OH)3 both are precipitated and on adding Br2 water and NaOH, Cr(OH)3 dissolves
  3.  precipitate of Cr(OH)3 and Fe(OH)3 as obtained in (b) are treated with conc. HCl when only Fe(OH)3 dissolves
  4.  both (b) and (c)

Answer

(B) addition of NH 4 OH in presence of NH 4 Cl when Cr(OH) 3 and Fe(OH) 3 both are precipitated and on adding Br 2 water and NaOH, Cr(OH) 3 dissolves
