(i) White precipitate of PbCl2 is formed which is soluble in hot water.
Pb(NO3)2 + 2HCl ⟶ PbCl2 ↓ + 2HNO3
(ii) White coloured precipitate of barium sulphate is formed when sodium sulphate is mixed with barium chloride.
Na2SO4 (dil.) + BaCl2 (aq.) ⟶ 2NaCl + BaSO4 ↓ [white ppt. formed]
(iii) Black spongy charred mass of carbon is formed. Steam is seen to be evolved.
$\text{C}_{12}\text{H}_{22}\text{O}_{11}\xrightarrow{\text{Conc. H}_2\text{SO}_4} \text{12C} \small{\space[sugar\space charcoal]} + \text{11H}_2\text{O}$
(iv) Effervescence of CO2 seen which turns lime water milky.
CuCO3 + 2HCl ⟶ CuCl2 + H2O + CO2
(v) Yellow particles of S precipitate.
Na2S2O3 + 2HCl ⟶ 2NaCl + SO2 + S + H2O
