Answer: By using litmus paper.

Explanation:

Litmus paper is an indicator which helps us to determine the solution as acidic or basic. These are of two types: red litmus paper and Blue litmus paper.

Red litmus paper is resistant to Acidic solution but it changes its color to blue when dipped in basic solution.

Blue litmus paper is resistant to Basic solution but it changes its color to red when dipped in acidic solution.

Hence, we can use litmus paper to test whether the unknown solution is acidic or basic.

Identify the effect of increasing acidity on the solubility of the given compounds.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

All the given compounds are basic on acidifying their solubility increases.

Explanation:

$C a_{3}\left(P O_{4}\right)_{2}$ solubility will increase, since it is basic in nature, on acidifying solubility increases.
$F e S$ being basic on acidification, the solubility increases.
$M g C O_{3}$ is alkaline in nature, it gets neutralized and there is no increase in acidity.
$M g B r_{2}$ is a salt and it shows no effect on acidification.
$A g I$ is a salt but insoluble in water and shows no effect on acidification.
$M g(O H)_{2}$ is strongly basic in nature, on acidifying the solubility increases.
