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 The other paper contains the following information Bottle Contains A AgNO3 B Mg(NO3)2 C Ba(NO3)2 X NaCl Y Na2Co3 Z Na2CrO4 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:

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

X Y Z

A White and hazy/ cloudy Yellow and hazy/ cloudy Red and hazy/ cloudy
