Preparation of Salts and Chemical Tests

Learning outcomes

• Describe laboratory methods for preparing soluble salts (acid + excess insoluble base/metal/carbonate, titration) and insoluble salts (precipitation).(apply)
• Identify cations (Al³⁺, NH4⁺, Ca²⁺, Cu²⁺, Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺, Zn²⁺), anions (CO3²⁻, Cl⁻, Br⁻, I⁻, NO3⁻, SO4²⁻, SO3²⁻), and gases (NH3, CO2, Cl2, H2, O2, SO2).(analyze)
