For each of the following anions, which statement best describes the experimental procedure used to test for it?

A sulfite anion

• Adding an equal volume of dilute HCl

  ,followed by heating, which results in production of a gas that turns filter paper soaked in acidified aqueous K2Cr2O7

  from orange to green.

• Adding an equal volume of dilute NaOH

  ,followed by heating, which results in production of a gas that turns moist litmus paper blue

• Adding an aqueous ammonia solution, which produces a yellow precipitate

• Adding an equal volume of dilute nitric acid, followed by silver nitrate, which gives a white precipitate
