What colour precipitate is formed when sodium hydroxide is added to an ionic solution containing a Fe(II)?
Green
What colour precipitate is formed when sodium hydroxide is added to an ionic solution containing a Fe(III)?
Orange-brown
What colour precipitate is formed when sodium hydroxide is added to an ionic solution containing a Cu(II)?
Blue
What colour precipitate is formed when sodium hydroxide is added to an ionic solution containing a Ca?
White
What colour precipitate is formed when sodium hydroxide is added to an ionic solution containing a zinc?
White
How do you detect sulphate ions?
Add a few drops of HCl (aq) and then a few drops of BaCl(aq). If a white propitiate is produced, the solution contained sulphate ions.
How do you detect carbonate ions?
Add a few drops of HCl(aq) and bubble any gas produced through limewater. If the limewater turns cloudy, carbonate ions were present.
How do you detect halide ions?
Add a few drops of nitric acid then a few drops of silver chloride(aq). If a precipitate is produced, chloride, bromide or iodide is present in solution.
What colour precipitate is formed when silver nitrate solution is added to a solution containing chloride ions.
White
What colour precipitate is formed when silver nitrate solution is added to a solution containing bromide ions?
