Show answer
Nitrogen dioxide, Oxygen
When copper nitrate is heated, it decomposes to form copper oxide (black residue), nitrogen dioxide (brown gas), and oxygen gas according to: 2Cu(NO₃)₂ → 2CuO + 4NO₂ + O₂
Which test is used to confirm the presence of hydrogen gas?
Show answer
Burns with a pop sound

Which ions can be identified by their reaction with sodium hydroxide solution? (Select all correct answers)
Show answer
Cu²⁺, Fe³⁺, Zn²⁺, NH₄⁺
All the cations listed (Cu²⁺, Fe³⁺, Zn²⁺, NH₄⁺) can be identified by their characteristic reactions with NaOH solution, forming colored precipitates or releasing gases. Chloride ion cannot be tested this way.
What color is the precipitate formed when copper ions react with sodium hydroxide?
Show answer
Pale blue
