Solution

The correct option is C

curdy white precipitate of silver choride is obtained


When silver nitrate solution is added to dilute hydrochloric acid a curdy white precipitate of silver chloride is obtained. The equation for the reaction is given below.

AgNO3+HClAgCl+HNO3

So the colour of the precipitate which is produced in this reaction is curdy white.
