Carbonates, Halides, Sulfates Flashcards
1
Q
Carbonate test
A
Metal carbonate + acid –> metal chloride + carbon dioxide + water, carbon dioxide test (limewater)
2
Q
Halide test
A
Dilute nitric acid added to remove carbonate ions, silver nitrate added, precipitate forms
3
Q
Positive results of halide tests
A
Silver chloride is white
Silver bromide is cream
Silver iodide is pale yellow
4
Q
Sulfate test
A
Dilute hydrochloric acid added to remove carbonate ions, barium chloride added, white precipitate forms with sulfates
5
