Hello all,
I was using my AP solution for the third time, stuck some gold plated fingers in it and now have a brown precipitate in the bottom and it is a fairly significant volume. The AP used has only been used with fingers. What am I looking at?
I took a small sample after filtering it out. Added Hcl and it immediately went into suspension again.
Added a couple of drops of Nitric and received a very small amount of white precipitate. The white precipitate was about 1/20th of the sample size. Sulphuric Acid or water put this back into suspension.
Should I use the reactivity chart to determine what it is? I have pure samples of lead, tin, copper, nickel, and aluminum. Also some steel laying around.
Thanks in advance.
