Appearance | White crystals or crystalline powder, usually having a slight,characteristic odor. |
Identification | A: Color reaction A brown ring forms at the junction of the two liquids |
B: Precipitate reaction The color of the solution changes to brown and, on standing, a precipitate of lead sulfide forms |
C: Precipitate reaction Identification A white precipitate results from treatment with mercuric chloride, and a red-brown precipitate results from treatment with iodine, treatment with mercuric-potassium iodide and trinitrophenol also |
D: Reaction of fluorescence The air-liquid meniscus shows a vivid blue fluorescence which disappears when the mixture is slightly acidified and reappears when it is again made alkaline |
