Back (Answer)

Ag+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) -> AgCl (s)

Front (Question)

What reagent(s) are required for the sulfate test?

Back (Answer)

(Acidified) Barium nitrate

Front (Question)

What reagent(s) are required for the carbonate test?

Back (Answer)

Nitric acid

Front (Question)

What positive observation is made for the sulfate test?

Back (Answer)

White precipitate (of BaSO4)

Front (Question)

What is the formulae of the carbonate ion?

Back (Answer)

CO32-

Front (Question)

Write an ionic equation, with state symbols, for the reaction of carbonate ions and nitric acid

Back (Answer)

CO32- (aq) + 2H+ (aq) -> CO2 (g) + H2O (l)

Front (Question)

What is the order of anion tests for an unknown sample?

Back (Answer)

Carbonate And Sulfate, Halide (CASH)

Front (Question)

What positive observation is made for the ammonium test?

Back (Answer)

Damp red litmus paper turns blue (due to alkaline gas produced)

Front (Question)

What positive observation is made for the carbonate test?

Back (Answer)

Effervescence, fizzing, bubbling

#10

Front (Question)

Write an ionic equation, with state symbols, for the reaction of sulfate ions and barium nitrate

Back (Answer)

SO42- (aq) + Ba2+ (aq) -> BaSO4 (s)

#11

Front (Question)

What reagent(s) are required for the ammonium test?

Back (Answer)

Warm NaOH solution

#12

Front (Question)

How are silver halide precipitates distinguished?

Back (Answer)

Add diulte ammonia: * White AgCl precipitate re-dissolves * Cream AgBr and Yellow AgI precipitates do not re-dissolve Add concentrated ammonia: * Cream AgBr precipitate re-dissolves * Yellow AgI precipitate is insoluble
