Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In qualitative analysis, what does a positive test for the presence of sulfate ions typically involve?
  • Step 1: Take a sample solution that you want to test for sulfate ions.
  • Step 2: Add a few drops of barium chloride solution to the sample.
  • Step 3: Observe the mixture for any changes.
  • Step 4: If a white solid forms, this indicates the presence of sulfate ions.
  • Step 5: The white solid formed is barium sulfate, which confirms the positive test.
