Test for halide ions (using silver nitrate)

[@Ghost572]

I tasted all 4 of them

[@AlleryChemistry]

Ghost572 Hmmm. Don't think they would do you much good.

Like the shirt 😆

Sophie Dennison Thanks. A Christmas present from the wife. She knows me very well!

[@rebeccas9880]

I couldn't understand this practical previously but now it's so clear. You are a really good teacher.

[@joelleboakye6339]

the shirt is amazing!!!

[@AlleryChemistry]

Hah cheers! Christmas present, they know me too well!

[@yaraabdelrahman2894]

I know the test really well but I get confused when I am working out their questions

[@MultiRaahim]

Hi! Great video! Would the test work if the Nitric acid was added after the Silver Nitrate?

[@AlleryChemistry]

Raahim Aziz Thanks for your comment! It should really be added prior to the addition of silver nitrate as it will react with any impurities that could form a precipitate when silver nitrate is added.

Great video as always!! For OCR A Is this module 3, chapter 8.3 or 8.2?

[@alishbashaikh410]

the halide test is mentioned in 8.2 but in 8.3 it indicates in what order you should do it in

[@bobbk8435]

i get confused in questions about when its talking about the best reducing agents or oxidising agents and whether a Cl2 atom or Cl- ion is best? Are Cl- ions best reducing agents - the ION and Cl2 worst oxidising agents - the ATOM

[@AlleryChemistry]

Oxidising agents gain electrons so Cl2 is a good oxidising agent. It can accept electrons easily. Reducing agents are lose electrons, I- would be the best reducing agent as it loses it's electron more readily.

[@bobbk8435]

Makes so much more sense now thanks :)

Great video

[@AlleryChemistry]

Thanks very much!

[@kyabukapiji9759]

lol that shirt is everything. Thanks for the video!!

[@AlleryChemistry]

No problem!!

[@ranjeetvishwakarma85]

Well explanation

[@mrhatter6826]

That's a rlly great t shirt
