Salkowski Reagent (prepared for the class): In the fume hood, mix 2 ml 0.5M FeCl3 and 49 ml water and 49 ml 70% perchloric acid (Oxidizer! Corrosive!). 0.5M ferric chloride solution: the formula/molecular weight is 270.3 so you would need 270.3 g for a liter of 1 M solution. For 10 ml, you would need 2.7g for 1 M.
