The following table shows the tests for anions:
Carbonate, Chloride, Bromide, Iodide, Nitrate, Sulfate and Sulfite.
Add dilute acid effervescence, carbon dioxide produced Testing for halide ions in solution: Chloride, Bromide, Iodide
Acidify with dilute nitric acid, then add aqueous silver nitrate
Chloride - white ppt, Bromide - cream ppt, Iodide - yellow ppt. Testing for nitrate ions in solution
Add aqueous sodium hydroxide, then aluminium foil; warm carefully, ammonia produced Testing for sulfate ions in solution
Acidify, then add aqueous barium nitrate, white ppt formed. Testing for sulfide ions in solution
Add dilute hydrochloric acid, warm gently and test for the presence of sulfur dioxide. Sulfur dioxide produced will turn acidified aqueous potassium manganate(VII) from purple to colourless The following table shows the tests for cations:
Aluminium, ammonium, calcium, chromium(III), copper, iron(II), iron(III), Zinc.
Copper, Iron(II), Iron(III), Zinc, Ammonium The following table shows the tests for gases:
Ammonia, Carbon Dioxide, Chlorine, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Sulfur Dioxide.
carbon dioxide (limewater goes milky); oxygen (a glowing splint re-lights) and hydrogen (a lighted splint produces a 'squeaky pop' sound). The following table shows the flame tests for metal ions:
Lithium - Red, Sodium - Yellow, Potassium - Lilac, Copper(II) - blue-green.
The following table shows the tests for water, acid, base, alkane and alkene.
The bromine water is initially an orange-brown colour. If the liquid being tested turns the bromine colourless then the compound id unsaturated - it contains at least one double bond. Alkanes are saturated and would not react.
