Determining the Identity of an Unknown Contaminant in a Solution through the Use of a Designed Solubility Chart Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to design a solubility chart of seven anions and eleven cations to determine the unknown contaminant - either Al3+, Ca2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Pb2+, Cl1- or SO42- - of a given solution of water. Materials: The materials utilized for part one: * Beakers * Droppers * Spot Plate * Test Tubes * Waste Beaker * Cation Solutions (Aluminum, Ammonium, Barium, Calcium, Copper, Iron, Magnesium, Silver, Sodium, Zinc and Lead ions) * Anion Solutions (Acetate, Bromide, Carbonate, Chloride, Hydroxide, Phosphate and Sulfate ions) The materials utilized for part two: * Beakers * Droppers * Spot Plate * Test Tubes * Waste Beaker * Cation Solutions (Aluminum, Ammonium, Barium, Calcium, Copper, Iron, Magnesium, Silver, Sodium, Zinc and Lead ions) * Anion Solutions (Acetate, Bromide, Carbonate, Chloride, Hydroxide, Phosphate and Sulfate ions) * Unknown Solution (Sample 2) Procedure: The procedure utilized for part one to determine solubility chart for the experiment: 1....
