Product Details

Classic AP Requirement #14—Separation and Qualitative Analysis of Cations and Anions

Students analyze two solution sets of four cations and four anions. For each set, a specific qualitative scheme is followed to separately detect each of the four ions present. Students are then given two unknown solution sets to analyze. By following the qualitative schemes, students determine which cations and anions are present and which are absent from the two samples. Four to five 50-minute lab sessions will be needed to complete all four sets of analyses.

Complete for 24 students working in pairs.

Performance Expectations

HS-PS1-1: Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms.
HS-PS1-2: Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties.
