Metal hydroxide precipitate tests

Description

"This video demonstrates how metal hydroxide precipitate tests are used to identify metal ions in a solution, in a practical experiment. When sodium hydroxide is added to solutions of some metal cations, a solid forms. That solid is called a precipitate, and it can tell us which metal ion is present in a solution. This experiment includes tests for six common metal ions.
