AnionsNegatively charged ions that can be identified through specific chemical tests.Chloride IonForms a white precipitate of silver chloride when reacted with nitric acid and silver nitrate.Bromide IonProduces a creamy white precipitate of silver bromide with nitric acid and silver nitrate.Iodide IonResults in a yellow precipitate of silver iodide when combined with nitric acid and silver nitrate.Carbonate IonReacts with hydrochloric acid to produce carbon dioxide gas and forms a white precipitate with magnesium sulfate.Bicarbonate IonAlso known as hydrogen carbonate, it releases carbon dioxide gas with hydrochloric acid but no precipitate with magnesium sulfate.Sulfate IonForms a white precipitate of barium sulfate with barium chloride and requires strong heating to release sulfur trioxide gas.Bisulfate IonProduces sulfur trioxide gas with light heating and releases more CO2 with sodium carbonate.Sulfide IonReleases sulfur dioxide gas with a strong odor when reacted with hydrochloric acid.Nitrate IonIdentified by the brown ring test, forming a brown ring with cold iron(II) sulfate and sulfuric acid.PrecipitateA solid formed in a solution during a chemical reaction, indicating the presence of specific ions.Silver NitrateReagent used to detect halide ions by forming distinct colored precipitates.Nitric AcidUsed in combination with silver nitrate to test for halide ions in a solution.Hydrochloric AcidReacts with carbonate and sulfide ions to release gases, aiding in their identification.Magnesium SulfateDifferentiates between carbonate and bicarbonate ions by forming a precipitate only with carbonate.
