Answer: The solutions for the tests will be prepared by dissolving the given powders separately in water.
Calcium Carbonate contains Ca2+ ions. Sodium Hydroxide solution can be used to identify Ca2+ since its addition to calcium carbonate solution will give white percipitates of Ca(OH)2 which are sparingly soluble in sxcess of NaOH.
