    The document describes experiments to identify the cation and anion in a blue crystalline salt. Tests were conducted to determine the anion was sulfate (SO42-) and the cation was copper (Cu2+). Specifically, barium chloride solution produced a white precipitate when added to the salt and hydrochloric acid, confirming the presence of sulfate. Additional tests on the salt showed the presence of copper including forming a black precipitate with hydrogen sulfide gas and producing characteristic color changes in solutions.
