The following is a list of methods for the preparation of salts.

A – direct combination of two elements

B – reaction of a dilute acid with a metal.

C – reaction of a dilute acid with an insoluble base.

D – titration of a dilute acid with a solution of soluble base.

Choose from the above list A to E, the best method of preparing the following salt by giving a suitable equation in the following case:

Anhydrous ferric chloride.

On adding dilute ammonia solution to a colourless solution of a salt, a white gelatinous precipitate appears. This precipitate however dissolves on addition of excess of ammonia solution. Identify (choose from Na, Al, Zn, Pb, Fe)

Which metal salt solution was used?
