The procedure for testing your unknown solution in this week's lab is identical to the procedure which you conducted in Week 1. The only difference is, of course, your Unknown Solution may or may not contain all of the ions which you tested for in Week 1. With that being said, please consider the following scenario:
You enter the lab and obtain an Unknown Solution from the Stockroom. You begin testing the solution through the steps outlined in the flowchart on p. 9 of the Exp 22 document. You first add HCl, and centrifuge your mixture. You observe the formation of a white precipitate in the bottom of the test tube. After pouring off the supernatant liquid, you add hot water to the white precipitate. Upon addition of the hot water, you still have some white precipitate in the bottom of the test tube. You add ammonia, NH3, to the test tube and observe the formation of a gray-black precipitate. Which of the following is the best conclusion to draw at this point? (Choose only one answer.)
a. The unknown solution definitely has Ag+ present.
b. The unknown solution could have Agt present, or Hg22+ present, or BOTH.
c. The unknown solution definitely has Hg22+ present.
d. The Unknown Solution definitely has Pbb present.

Consider three unlabeled bottles, each contain small pieces of one of the following metals. - magnesium - sodium - silver the following reagents are used for identifying the metals. - pure water - a solution of 1.0 molar hcl - a solution of concentrated hno3 (a) which metal can be easily identified because it is much softer than the other two? describe a chemical test that distinguishes this metal from the other two, using only one of the reagents above. write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs. (b) one of the other two metals reacts readily with the hcl solution. identify the metal and write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs when this metal is added to the hcl solution. use the table of standard reduction potentials (attached) to account for the fact that this metal reacts with hcl while the other does not. (c) the one remaining metal reacts with the concentrated hno3 solution. write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs. (d) the solution obtained in (c) is diluted and a few drops of 1 m hcl is added. describe what would be observed. write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs.
