Second day: Separation of Aluminum. Precipitating agent?
saturated ammonium chloride and dilute acetic acid
Second day
FOURTH STEP: Precipitating agent saturated ammonium chloride and dilute acetic acid
Purpose?
Precipitate aluminum ion [Al(H2O)3(OH)3(colorless gelatinous precipitate)] leaving the zinc and chromic
ions in the solution
Second day
FOURTH STEP: Confirmation for Aluminum ion: Reagent?
Aluminon
Second day
FOURTH STEP:
Reaction?
: the red colored dye will be adsorbed by the gelatinous colorless precipitate if aluminum is
present thus giving a cranberry red/pink colored precipitate

Barium Acetate
FIFTH STEP: Separation of Zinc and Chromate ions (centrifugate) Precipitating agent: Barium Acetate
Purpose?
Precipitate chromate ion as yellow precipitate but together with barium sulfate a white precipitate
FIFTH STEP: Separation of Zinc and Chromate ions (centrifugate)
Precipitating agent: Barium Acetate
Chemical Reaction?
Ba2+ + CrO4^-2↔BaCrO4
FIFTH STEP: Separation of Zinc and Chromate ions (centrifugate)
Confirmation for Chromate ion:
