Title: Qualitative Analysis

Aim: To determine the identity of a solid A and a solution B

Apparatus/Materials

Test tube, test tube holder, beaker, spatula, dropper, distilled water, dilute sodium hydroxide, dilute
aqueous ammonia, barium nitrate, dilute hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, solid A, solution B

Procedure Observation Inference

Addition of NaOH to solid (Ions present) equations for

substance A dropwise each

Addition of solid substance A in

excess

Addition of aqueous ammonia Ions present with their equation

dropwise.

Then in excess.

Addition of barium nitrate to a Ion present as well as equation

solution of substance A

Addition of dilute acid to

solution A

Addition of NaOH to solution Ions Present Equations for each

substance B dropwise
Addition of NaOH in excess to Ion present
substance B

Addition of ammonia to
solution B dropwise

Then in excess

Addition of concentrated Ions present and equation

sulphuric acid

Followed by the addition of Equation

ammonia

Substance Cation present Anion present
