oxygen

oxygen relights a glowing splint

2 of 27

carbon dioxide

Turns limewater cloudy

3 of 27

hydrogen

makes a squeeky pop with a lightened splint. This noise is made by hydrogen burning with oxygen to mkae h2o

ammonia

Turns damp red litmus paper blue

5 of 27

add sodium hydroxide to calcium

gives white percipitate 

6 of 27

add sodium hydroxide to copper

blue percipitate

7 of 27

add sodium hydroxide to iron

gives sludgey green percipitate

8 of 27

add sodium hydroxide to iron111

gives a red-brown precipitate

9 of 27

add sodium hydroxide to aluminum

gives a white percipitate then redisolves in naoh to give a colourless solution

10 of 27

add sodium hydroxide to ammonium

doesnt give percipitate, heating produces ammonia which has a strong smell

carbonates + hcl =

CO2

17 of 27

sulfates + hcl =

SO2

how do you test for sulfur dioxide

damp potassium dichromate paper. 

Turns to orange from green

how to test for sulfate ions

add hcl to get rid of carbonate and suflite ions. Then add barium solution
