Answer all questions in this section.
0 1 A student does a series of reactions with aqueous solutions of some
potassium halides (P, Q and R) of equal concentration. Each solution contains a
different halide ion (chloride, bromide or iodide).
The student adds 3 drops of bromine water to 3 drops of each aqueous solution of
potassium halide. The student also adds 3 drops of the bromine water to
3 drops of water.
Table 1 shows the student’s observations.

0 1 . 3 The student does a second experiment to determine the halide ion in each of P and R.
The student adds a few drops of aqueous silver nitrate solution to
2 cm3 of each potassium halide solution.

Describe a further chemical test that the student can complete on the precipitates
formed to identify the halide ion present in P and the halide ion present in R.
Describe how the observations from this test can be used to identify the halide ion
present in P and the halide ion present in R.
