Q

What are two ways to test for presence of water

A

Using copper (II) sulphate, burn it until it turns white, then add the liquid if it goes back to blue there’s water presence.

Using cobalt (II) chloride usually it’s blue if after adding the substance it turns pink there’s water presence.

Q

What are two ways water supply is treated

A

Chlorination and filtration.

In chlorination, chlorine is added to water which kills bacteria and reduces waater borne diseases.

In filtration it passes through a filtration system that may contain activated carbon, sand, and gravel to remove large particles and purities.

Q

What happens to soil if it’s too alkaline or acidic

A

It can’t grow crops

20
Q

What is carbon dioxide a byproduct of

A

An acid and a crabonate

21
Q

How to prepare, separate, and then purify soluble salts that have a insoluble base

A

1) Add acid into beaker than put into a larger beaker of hot water

2) Add insoluble base slowly until reaction is over.

3) Set up filter funnel and filter paper to remove insoluble ppt. Pour solution into conical flask

4) Grab a bunsen burner and heat it till boil adding anti bumping granules. Maintain a simmer

5) Pour solution into petri dish then rest a broken splint so broken end dips into the solution you will find crystals forming from the splint.

22
Q

what are the solubility rules

A
  • Group 1 always soluble
  • ammonium always soluble
  • nitrates generally soluble
  • halides (minus F) generaly solube (minus Ag, Pb, Hg)
  • Sulphate mostly soluble unless with group 2 elements and Pb
  • most hydroxides slightly soluble (like w grp 1)
  • carbonates frequently insoluble
23
Q

How to prepare, separate, and then purify soluble salts that have a soluble base

A

You must use titrations

1) Fill burrette acid, alkali in conical flask under burrette

2) Add pH indicator to alkali, show neutralisation

3) Add acid gradually until neutralisation occurs. repeat 3x find average, then wo indicator

4) Pour neutral solution into evaporating basin to evaporate around half of the water to concentrate

5) Pour concentrated solution to cool and crystalize

24
Q

How to prepare, separate, and then purify insoluble salts

A

1) Mix 2 soluble salt solutions

2) The produce being a insoluble salt will appear as a ppt.

3) You know the ppt. by solubility rules.

25
Q

How to test for oxygen

A

Light a splint on fire blow it out then stick it into the tube, if it bursts into flames or glows brighter there’s oxygen presence

26
Q

How to test for hydrogen

A

Insert a lit splint, if there’s a popping sound there’s hydrogen presence

27
Q

How to test for carbon dioxide

A

Bubble the gas through lime water, if it turnes milky there’s carbon dioxide presence

28
Q

How to test for ammonia

A

put a damp red litmus paper above if it turns blue there’s ammonia

29
Q

How to test for chlorine

A

Put a damp litmus paper and it will turn white if there’s chlorine as it bleaches the paper.

30
Q

How to identify lithium

A

Place it above a bunsen burner heat it strongly and there will be a red flame color

31
Q

How to identify sodium

A

Place it above a bunsen burner heat it strongly and there will be a yellow flame

32
Q

How to identify potassium

A

Place it above a bunsen burner heat it strongly and there will be a lilac flame

33
Q

How to identify copper (II)

A

Place it above a bunsen burner heat it strongly and there will be a turqoise flame.

34
Q

How to test for zinc

A

Add a few drops of sodium hydroxide, where it will have a soluble white ppt. In excess the ppt. will dissolve, leading to a colorless solution. In ammonia zinc has a soluble white ppt. In excess amonnium the ppt. dissolves again leaving a colorless solution

35
Q

How to test for copper (II)

A

In sodium hydroxide insoluble blue precipitate form and same in excess. In ammonium Pale insoluble blue precipitate forms, and in excess Precipitate dissolves forming a deep blue solution

35
Q

How to test for calcium (II)

A

Sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide added will make a insoluble white ppt

36
Q

How to test for iron (III)

A

In sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide added will make a rusty red insoluble ppt.

36
Q

How to test for iron (II)

A

In sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide added will make a dirty green insoluble ppt.

37
Q

How to test for ammonium

A
  • add NaOH
  • warm gently in water bath
  • damp litmus paper (red–> blue)
37
Q

How to test for a carbonate

A

Add hydrochloric acid to the solution and then bubble the gas produced through lime water if it turns milky positive test result.

37
Q

How to test for a sulphate

A

Add hydrochloric acid and then barium chloride solution if there’s a white ppt. positive test result

38
Q

How to test for chloride

A

Add nitric acid then silver nitrate solution, white ppt that turns purple in sunlight is a positive test result

39
Q

How to test for bromide

A

Add nitric acid then silver nitrate solution creamy ppt positive test result

40
Q

How to test for iodide

A

Add nitric acid then silver nitrate solution yellow ppt positive test result

41
Q

How to test for ammonium

A

Add sodium hydroxide to solution then warm with a water bath, and then hold moist red litmus paper that should turn blue.

42
Q

How to test for nitrate

A
  • reduce by Al under hot alkaline conditions (OH- & Al)
  • ammonia produced, test for it
