    The document provides the procedure for identifying the S2- anion in a given salt sample. The procedure involves testing a pinch of the salt sample with dilute hydrochloric acid, which produces a colorless gas with the characteristic rotten egg smell of hydrogen sulfide. Tests with blue litmus paper and lead acetate paper confirm the gas is hydrogen sulfide, identifying the anion in the salt sample as sulfide (S2-).

    Identification of anions

    1. Aim :- To identify the S2- anion in the given salt


    sample
    2. Apparatus required :- sample Zinc sulphide ,
    Dil.HCl , Test tube , spatula, Test tube holder , blue
    litmus paper, Filter paper and lead acetate solution .

    3. Physical properties
    Colour and Texture :-White and amorphous
    4. Test for anion
    Experiment observation Inference
    1.To a pinch of salt A colourless gas with H2S gas is suspected.
    sample add dil. HCl characteristic rotten And anion may be S2-
    egg smell is evolved
    2. Test the gas with Turns red Gas is acidic
    moist blue litmus
    3. Test the gas Turns to silvery black H2S gas is confirmed.
    evolved with lead And the anion is
    acetate paper sulphide

    5. Equation :-

    ZnS + HCl ZnCl2 + H2S


    (CH3COO)2Pb PbS + 2CH3COOH
