3 Two solids, E and F, which are both salts, were analysed. Solid F was lithium chloride.
Tests were carried out on each solid.
Some of the tests and observations are shown.

tests on solid E

tests on solid E observations

test 1

A flame test was carried out on solid E. yellow colour

test 2

10 cm3 of distilled water were poured into a boiling tube. The initial temperature of the water was
measured.
Solid E was added to the boiling tube and the boiling tube was shaken to dissolve solid E. The
temperature of the solution was measured after 1 minute.

The solution was divided into two equal portions in two test-tubes and the following tests carried
out.

test 3

Dilute hydrochloric acid was added to the first filter paper turned from purple to colourless
portion of the solution. The gas given off was
tested with filter paper dipped into acidified
aqueous potassium manganate(VII).

test 4

An excess of aqueous sodium hydroxide was no change


added to the second portion of the solution.
