Ca2+
1)Color after drop dropwise addition of sodium hydroxide solution
2)Effect of adding excess sodium hydroxide solution on the precipate
White
Precipate is insoluble in excess, therefore it remains
Al3+
1)Color after drop dropwise addition of sodium hydroxide solution
2)Effect of adding excess sodium hydroxide solution on the precipate
White

Identify
Hydrogen
A colourless gas
Has no smell
Place a lit splint in the gas. A squeky pop is heard and the splint is extinguished
