Requirements per student (or group)<br />
0.1 mol l -1 potassium dichromate (~ 2 cm 3 )<br />
(29.4 g potassium dichromate per litre)<br />
1 mol l -1 sulphuric acid (~ 4 cm 3 )<br />

Benedict's solution (~ 6 cm 3 )<br />
TOLLENS' REAGENT (~ 6 CM 3 )<br />
(Tollens' reagent must be prepared just prior<br />
to its use.<br />
To 5 cm 3 of 0.05 mol l -1 silver nitrate add<br />
about 5 drops of 2 mol l -1 sodium hydroxide.<br />
Then add 2 mol l -1 ammonia solution drop by<br />
drop until the precipitate just dissolves)<br />
