Add BaCl2 solution to the above solution for white precipitates of BaSO4 + ZnCl2.

\[\ce{ZnSO + BaCl -> BaSO4\downarrow + \underset{(White ppt)}{ZnCl2}}\]

Add BaCl2 solution to the above solution; no effect is visualised.

\[\ce{ZnCl2 + BaCl2 -> No visual effect}\]

Sodium hydroxide solution can be used to distinguish between i. iron (II) sulphate solution and (ii) iron (III) sulphate solution; because these solutions give different coloured precipitates with sodium hydroxide solution. Give the colour of the precipitate formed with each of the solution.


Sodium hydroxide solution is added first in a small quantity, then in excess to the aqueous salt solutions of copper (II) sulphate, zinc nitrate, lead nitrate, calcium chloride and iron (III) sulphate. Copy the following table and write the colour of the precipitate in (i) to (v) and the nature of the precipiatate (soluble or insoluble) in (vi) to (x)

Aqueous salt Solution Colour of Participitate when NaOH is added in a samll quantity Nature of precipitate(soluble or insoluble) when NaOH added in excess
Copper (II) Solution    
Zinc nitrate    
Lead nitrate    
Calcium chloride    
Iron(III) sulphate
