A student was given a solid containing a mixture of nitrate salts. The sample completely dissolved in water, and upon addition of dilute HCl, no precipitate formed. The pH was lowered to about 1 and H2S was bubbled through the solution. No precipitate formed. The pH was adjusted to 8 and H2S was again bubbled in. This time, a precipitate formed. Which compounds might have been present in the unknown?
NaNO3, Cr(NO3)3, Bi(NO3)3, Mn(NO3)3, Sn(NO3)3, Cd(NO3)2, Zn(NO3)2, Ca(NO3)2
