Distinguish by adding sodium hydroxide solution and ammonium hydroxide solution to:
(a) Calcium salt solution and lead salt solution.
(b) Lead salt solution and zinc salt solution.
(c) Copper salt solution and ferrous salt solution.
(d) Fe(II) salt solution and Fe(III) salt solution.
(a) Calcium salt solution and lead salt solution.
(b) Lead salt solution and zinc salt solution.
(c) Copper salt solution and ferrous salt solution.
(d) Fe(II) salt solution and Fe(III) salt solution.
a) Sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide on reaction with calcium salt give a milky white precipitate of Ca(OH)2, while lead salt solution gives chalky white precipitate of Pb(OH)2. [1 Mark]
(b) Sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide on reaction with lead salt give brown coloured precipitate, and with zinc, a white gelatin-like precipitate is formed. [1 Mark]
(c) Sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide on reaction with copper salt give pale blue coloured precipitate, and with ferrous salt solution, a dirty green coloured precipitate is formed. [1 Mark]
(d) Sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide on reaction with Fe(II) salt give dirty green coloured precipitate, while with Fe(III) salt solution it forms a reddish brown insoluble precipitate. [1 Mark]
