Question
The report for this experiment is due before the end of the lab period. Use the informati A student has carried out tests on her unknown at two different stations. Use the observations below to determine which ions are or are not present. on given in this experimental procedure to answer the following questions. A student is carrying out the known test for the bromide ion. An appropriate amount of bromide ion solution, paraffin oil, and chlorine water are placed in the test tube. The paraffin oil layer remains colourless. What is the most likely reason the paraffin oil layer did not become a golden orange colour? 1.Explanation / Answer
This impliest that the species are not soluble in the paraffin
recall that the colors are mainly because of the Br2(l) and Br-(aq) presence
paraffin will not liekly have Bromine species, thereofre, it is not "golden-organge" in color.
the speciews are mos tlikely presnet only in aqueous solution
