how to test for carbonate?

A

add dilute hydrochloric acid and bubble the gas evolved into aqueous calcium hydroxide (limewater)

24
Q

what is observed in carbonate test?

what is observed in oxygen test?

A

glowing splint will relight/burst into flames

36
Q

what is one way to test for sulfur dioxide?

A

place a filter paper strip soaked with acidified potassium manganate (VII) above the mouth of the test tube

37
Q

what is the observation of the first sulfur dioxide test?

A

the purple acidified potassium manganate (VII) decolourises

38
Q

what is a another test for sulfur dioxide?

A

place a filter paper soaked with acidified potassium dichromate (VI) above the mouth of the test tube

39
Q

what is observed in the second sulfur dioxide test?

A

the acidified potassium dichromate (VI) turns from orange to green
