What effect does chlorine have on moist universal indicator?
Chlorine turns moist universal indicator paper red, then bleached. It has the same effect on blue litmus paper (red then bleached). this shows it is an acidic gas and so when reacts with sodium for example (an alkali metal) makes sodium chloride (salt).
How do you test for H2o?
Testing with indicator paperstrip: Iodide-Starch gets blue
How do you test if chlorine gas is present?
Chlorine can be in different states (SOLID, LIQUID,GAS) but with another compound. some of the tests are as follows... 1) Is green-yellow in colour. (GAS) 2) Has a pungent choking smell.

Which gas turns moist starch iodide paper blue black?
Chlorine gas
Why does chlorine gas turn starch iodide paper blue?
Chlorine gas oxidizes some of the iodide ions in the paper to create iodine diatomic molecules. These molecules react with the iodide ions and the starch to form a charge-transfer complex, which has a striking blue color. It is thought that linear I3- and I5- ions occupy the center of the helix structure in the starch. These ions are formed by the reaction of molecular iodine with iodide ions.
What reaction occurs from a mixture of CuO and concentrated HCl?
When concentrated Hydrogen chloride acid is made to react with Copper(II)Oxide, Copper Chloride is formed with the evolution of a greenish yellow pungent gas called chlorine(Cl 2).The chlorine gas formed turns moist starch iodide paper blue black.turns blue litmus red and finally decolourizes it. Copper oxide used here is black in color.
For what purpose you use starch-iodine indicator paper?
it is used to indicate acidic radicals which reacts with the iodide solution.

What happens when moist blue litmus paper dipped in chlorine?
If test chlorine with a moist blue litmus paper, Turn from blue à red à colourless It is because chlorine reacts with water (moisture on paper) to from HOCl (hypochlorite acid) which is a bleaching agent, turning the dye to colourless Cl2 (aq) + H2O (l) à Hcl (aq) + HOCl (aq) and HOCl à HCl + [O]
What happens when iodide vapor is passed through litmus paper?
