Urgent Help for IGCSE Chem !
Trinion:
Thank you Adi
I still can't find the thermal decomposition in the syllabus!
it certainly isn;t in my textbook? =(
I think you mistook what I meant, I meant say... Sodium chloride dissolves in water, neither ions in aqueous solutions change the colour of the solution correct?
Is it true for other halogens/transitional metal ions when they dissolve in water?
Ghost Of Highbury:
i'm not sure abt this but i strongly think that it takes the colour of the ppt. colour formed by the cation
fore.g-> CuSO4 -> Cu2+ + SO4(2-)
when added to water, turns blue. blue = Cu(2+)
same with NaCl
so it takes the colour precipitate of the cation
Trinion:
Cool =)
What about bromine water/solution
Why is it orange or brown? Is it because of the bromine ions?
Ghost Of Highbury:
bromine water is simply an aqueous solution of Br2 --> no ions, the colour of Br2 is brown thus bromine water is brown color.
Trinion:
Adi, doesn't an aqueous solution of an element simply mean its ions are dissolved in it?
