A student prepared solutions of NaCl, `Na_(2)CO_(3) and NH_(4)Cl`. He put them separately in three test tubes. He forgot to label them. All solutions were colourless . How should he proceed to know the solutions present in the three test tubes ? |
Answer» He can test with blue and red litmus solutions. NaCl solution is neutral. It will neither turn blue litmus red nor red litmus blue. `NH_(4)Cl` solution is acidic. It will turn blue litmus red but will have no effect on red litmus `Na_(2)CO_(3)` solution is basic. It will turn red litmus blue but will have no effect on blue litmus . | |
