As a secret agent, your assignment is to pick up some chemicals and deliver them to the Special Chemicals Unit. You
then undertake this assignment with all the adventures that would make OO7 proud of you. Following the pick up,
you notice that the bottles are labeled A,B,C, X, Y, Z only. You are given two papers, which identify the bottles.
One paper contains the following information:
Bottles
A, B, C
X, Y, Z

Contains
In no particular order: Mg(NO3)2, AgNO3 and Ba(NO3)2
In no particular order: Na2CrO4, NaCl and Na2CO3.

The other paper contains the following information

Bottle
Contains
A
Mg(NO3)2
B
Ba(NO3)2
C
AgNO3
X
NaCl
Y
Na2CO3
Z
Na2CrO
You realize that the second sheet is smudged (due to your escapades in attaining the chemicals.) In order to deliver
the substances, you need to fix the second paper. Your task is to identify each of A, B, C, X, Y and Z, using their
solubility tables, and then write formula, complete ionic and net ionic equations corresponding to each precipitate
formed.
Draw up a data table and show detailed observations for the tests that you conduct:

X
Y
Z

A
Milky white
White and Pinkish
Red

B
Clear. No reaction
Baby Blue
No Reaction

C
Clear. No reaction
White
Baby Yellow

Conclusion:

A is __________ B is ____________ C is ____________

X is ___________ Y is ____________ Z is____________
