▼ Part A - Solution 1 After being given a solution containing a set of unknown ions, you perform the following sequence of tests to determine the identity of the cations in solution: 1. A flame test produces no color 2. You take a small portion of the solution and add NaOH. A vapor is produced that turns red litmus blue. 3. You add HCI to solution, which results in the formation of a white precipitate. The supernatant is separated and used for the remainder of the tests. 4. The addition of buffered NH4*/NH3 to a portion of the supernatant from step 3 does not produce a precipitate. 5. The addition of ammonium oxalate to a portion of the superntant from step 3 does not produce a precipitate 6. The addition of a strong base to a portion of the supernatant from step 3 generates a precipitate. 7. The supernatant from step 6 is separated from the precipitate. The addition of HCI and K4Fe(CN)6 to the solution produces no reaction. Based on these tests, identify which of the following ions must be present, can be present, and cannot be present. Na+, NH4+, Ag+, Fe³+, Al³+, Cr³+, Ca2+, Mg²+, Ni²+, Zn²+

You are given four different aqueous solutions and told that they each contain NaOH, Na2CO3, NaHCO3, or a mixture of these solutes. You do some experiments and gather these data about the samples. Sample A: Phenolphthalein is colorless in the solution. Sample B: The sample was titrated with HCl until the pink color of phenolphthalein disappeared, then methyl orange was added. The solution became pink. Methyl orange changes color from pH 3.01 (red) to pH 4.4 (orange). Sample C: Equal volumes of the sample were titrated with standardized acid. Using phenolphthalein as an indicator required 15.26 mL of standardized acid to change the phenolphthalein color. The other sample required 17.90 mL for a color change using methyl orange as the indicator. Sample D: Two equal volumes of the sample were titrated with standardized HCl. Using phenolphthalein as the indicator, it took 15.00 mL of acid to reach the equivalence point; using methyl orange as the indicator required 30.00 mL HCl to achieve neutralization. Identify the solute in each of the solutions.
