Label one of the test tubes Fe2+. Add 4 milliliters of iron(II) sulfate to the test tube. Label the other test tube Fe3+. Add 4 milliliters of iron(III) nitrate to the test tube. Add 4 milliliters of potassium thiocyanate to each test tube. Observe the contents of the test tubes, noting any evidence of a chemical reaction. Record your observations in the table. If there is no evidence of a reaction, write “no reaction.”
