Question
what are the principle chemical reaction involved in each test?
Apparatus and Reagents
Test tubes, 13 x 100
Droppers
Lucas reagent (dissolve 27 g anhydrous ZnCl2 in 18
Lucas Test
Place 10 drops test compounds in separate test
tubes. Add 10 drops of Lucas reagent. Shake
vigorously and note the appearance of cloudiness
or insoluble layer.
ml conc. HCI)
Tollens' Test
Apparatus and Reagents
Test tubes, 13 x 100
Droppers
Tollens reagent (Solution A: dissolve 0.25g AgNO3
in 4.3 mL H20; Solution B: dissolve 0.3g NaOH in
4.2 ml H20; Add conc. NH3 to solution A
dropwise until a brown precipitate is formed.
Add solution B dropwise until the solution is
clear)
Boiling Water bath
Place 20 drops of freshly prepared Tollens reagent
in separate test tubes. Add 10 drops test
compounds to each test tube. Mix well and place
in boiling water bath for 5 minutes. Take note of
any change.
Ceric Nitrate Test
Place 10 drops test compounds in separate test
tubes. Add 10 drops of Ceric ammonium nitrate
reagent. Note the change in color.
Test tubes, 13 x 100
Droppers
Ceric ammonium nitrate reagent (Dissolve 45g of
Ce(NHa)2(NO3)6 in 115 mL 2M HNO3
