ANSWERS
​(a)Test the acidity using a litmus pager. There will be no change on litmus when dipped into a solution of sodium sulphate . The litmus paper turns to red when dipped into a solution of sodium hydrogen sulphate .
OR Add a solid carbonate to each solution. No effervescence observed when the carbonate is added to a solution of sodium sulphate. Effervescence is observed when the carbonate is added to a solution of sodium hydrogen sulphate. (b)Add dilute nitric acid to lead to form a soluble salt, Pb(NO3)2, add a soluble salt, Na2SO4. Then dry the salt between filter papers . (c)(i) NH4 NO3 → N2O + 2H2O II 2Fe(OH)3(S) → Fe2O3(s) + 3H2O(l) (ii) The colour changes from pale green to brown .
