7. Confirmation tests are _____. qualitative tests to identify anions and cations in unknowns quantitative tests to identify anions and cations in unknowns always performed with hydrochloric acid
Exercise 1 1. What was the identity of the anion in Unknown #103? Explain how you used the observations recorded in Data Table 1 to reach this conclusion. The identity of the anion in Unknown #103 is carbonate. The reaction in data table 1 of both 103 and carbonate were identical with each other.
2. What was the identity of the anion in Unknown #104? Explain how you used the observations recorded in Data Table 1 to reach this conclusion. Identity of anion in #104 is sulfide. The data recorded in data table 1 for #104 matched the data for sulfide, indicating the same reaction occurred and sulfide was the chemical in common.
3. Write the chemical equation for the ionic reaction between Na2 S and AgNO3 . AgNO3 + Na2S = Ag2S + NaNO3

Exercise 2 1. What was the identity of the cation in Unknown #105? Explain how you used the observations recorded in Data Table 2 to reach this conclusion. The identity of the cation in #105 is copper. Due to the fact during the flame observations it burned the same color as the unknown substance.
2. If you were asked to confirm the identity of an unknown chemical such as lithium sulfide (Li 2 S), describe the tests that you would use to confirm the identity. Use your results in both Exercise 1 and Exercise 2 to describe the observations in both the cation and anion tests that would allow the unknown to be confirmed as lithium sulfide. I personally would follow the procedure used for this lab and place the unknown chemical into a well and then add AgNO3 and HCl. Then I would record my observations to find the anion. Then after that perform the flame cation test. The data taken from both of these tests should be able to tell me the identity of the unknown chemical.

Extension Questions

1. A solution containing an ionic compound is subjected to the anion and cation confirmation tests performed in this experiment, providing the following results: Addition of silver nitrate: a bright yellow precipitate formed. Flame test: a purple color was observed. Identify the ionic compound and write the chemical reaction that occurs when the ionic compound interacts with the silver nitrate. Identify the spectator ions. The spectator ions in this are K+ and NO-3, since these ions do not involve any reaction.
It is given that a bright yellow precipitate is formed when the substances given reacts with silver nitrate. Silver nitrate reacts with anion iodide (I-) to form a yellow precipitate. In the flame test if we get a purple color then the cation MUST be Potassium (K+). If we combine the cation and anion we will get the compound as Potassium Iodide (KI)
K+ + I- + Ag+ + NO3- ---> KNO3 + AgI (S)
The Silver and Iodide ions combine to form a precipitate and POtassium and nitrate ions are acting as spectator ions, which do not involve reaction.
