Test for carbonate ions
add dilute
nitric acid
to sample
if bubbles observed, bubble the gas through
limewater
if limewater turns
cloudy
, gas is
carbon dioxide
Test for sulfate ions
add aqueous
barium chloride
or
barium nitrate
white
precipitate forms
Test for halide ions
add aqueous
silver nitrate
precipitate
forms
white =
chloride
cream =
bromide
yellow =
iodide
Test must be carried out in particular order
carbonate
->
sulfate
->
halide
carbonate ions produce a
precipitate
in sulfate and halide tests
sulfate ions produce a
precipitate
in halide test
Test for ammonium ions
add
sodium hydroxide
to solution and
warm
mixture
test for any
gas
with damp
red litmus paper
positive result = litmus paper turns
blue
Silver chloride
is soluble in dilute ammonia not concentrated ammonia
Silver bromide
is soluble in concentrated ammonia not dilute ammonia
Silver iodide
is not soluble in dilute or concentrated ammonia
