Why is it that when iron is added to dilute acid the test tube turns hot?

Because there's a chemical reaction going on.


Why is Barium Sulphate used in the limit test for sulphates?

Barium sulfate is very sparingly soluble. Any addition of it to a solution containing sulfate or barium will almost immediately cause a precipitate to form.


How would you test the presence of sulfate ions?

To identify the presence of sulfate ions in a solution, follow these steps: To acidify the sample, add a few drops of dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl) to the sample. Then, add a few drops of dilute barium chloride (BaCl2) solution to the sample. If sulfate ions are present in the solution, a white precipitate of barium sulfate (BaSO4) will form. The reaction is: Ba²⁺ (aq) + SO4²⁻ (aq) → BaSO4 (s) For example, if we have a solution of magnesium sulfate (MgSO4), the reaction would be: BaCl2 (aq) + MgSO4 (aq) → BaSO4 (s) + MgCl2 (aq) By observing the formation of the white precipitate, we can confirm the presence of sulfate ions in the sample.


Will water dilute an etg test?

Water can dilute an ETG test. However, you will have to drink a large amount of water for the dilution process.

Why you use BaSO4 reagent instead of BaCl2 solution in limit test of sulphate?

BaSO4 is insolubel AND it contains sulfate, the ion of which the absence or existance should be tested for. (This doesn't sound quite logic)

What is the effect on zinc granules when added to dilute sulphuric acid?

the test tube which holds the zinc becomes hot , the zinc turns into zinc chloride and hydrogen gas is produced. It is a chemical change.
