Explanation:
The answer for this question depends on the type of meniscus in the cylinder. If it is an upright meniscus like in water, the reading should be taken at the bottom of the meniscus. However if it is an inverted meniscus like in mercury, the reading should be taken at the top of the meniscus.

By crushing the salt, you are performing a physical change because you aren't altering the chemical makeup of the salt, just the physical form. Hope this helps! :)
True! You can use the percentage to determine the amount of moles of each substance in the compound, and then use that information to find the empirical formula.
Answer:
In comparison to Part 1 of this experiment, we observed similar reactions when determining the make up of our unknown. When testing for Mn2+ we observed a color change that resulted in a darker brown/red color, when testing for Co2+ we observed the formation of foamy bubbles but we could not conclude that a gas had formed, when testing for Fe3+ the result was a liquid red in color, when testing for Cr3+ we observed no change, when testing for Zn2+ we observed the formation of a pink/red liquid, when testing for K+ we observed the formation of a precipitate, when testing for Ca2+ we observe the formation of a precipitate. Sources of error may have occurred when observing whether or not an actual reaction had taken place or not, using glassware that wasn't fully cleaned, or the accidental mix of various other liquids in the lab
