Chemical Analysis - Worksheet

The document describes a chemistry experiment analyzing an unknown solution (T) and liquid (U). Solution T was found to be aqueous sodium hydroxide based on several tests: it did not emit light during a flame test, had a pH of 14, produced white precipitates with zinc sulfate and chromium chloride. Ammonium chloride added to solution T produced ammonia gas. Liquid U was found to be ethanol based on its pleasant smell and burning with a blue flame when touched to a lit splint.

6 Solution T and liquid U were analysed. Solution T was aqueous sodium


hydroxide. Tests were done on solution T and liquid U.

tests on solution T

Complete the expected observations.

Solution T was divided into four portions in three test-tubes and one boiling tube.

(a) (i) A flame test was done on the first portion of solution T.

Observation

(b) ● A few drops of aqueous zinc sulfate were added to the second portion of
solution T in a test-tube. The test-tube was shaken to mix the solutions.

tests on liquid U

Some of the tests and observations are shown.

tests on liquid U observations

The appearance of liquid U was studied. colourless, pleasant smelling

A few drops of liquid U were placed on to a


watch glass.

The surface of the liquid was touched with a burned with a blue flame
lighted splint.

(e) What conclusion can you draw about liquid U?
