Hey guys, I realised that the precipitation tests that I learnt are really wierd compared to everyone elses e.g. Test for Phosphate ions, add ammonium molybdate?

I looked up my textbook and it says to add OH to make it alkaline and then BaPO4. However, it doesn't say anything about the colour??

Can anyone help?
