SYSTEMATIC ANALYSIS OF INORGANIC SALT MIXTURE - II

S.No EXPERIMENT OBSERVATION INFERENCE


.

A.DRY REACTION

1. Colour Appearance (a) Colourless Al3+, Zn2+, Ca2+, Mg2+,


NH4+ may be present

(b) Crystalline
May be Sulphate, Nitrate
or Chloride

2. Solubility: May be Nitrate, Sulphate,


Acetate, Oxalate, Sulphite,
A pinch of salt mixture is shaken with Soluble in water
Nitrite, Chloride
distilled water

3. Action of Heat:

A little of the salt mixture is heated in a clean Reddish brown gas evolves turns May be nitrate or nitrite
and dry test tube ferrous sulphate solution black
S.No EXPERIMENT OBSERVATION INFERENCE
.

4. Flame Test:

A little of the salt mixture is made into a No characteristic flame Absence of copper,
paste by mixing with conc. HCl. A small calcium, barium, strontium
amount of the paste is introduced into the
flame and the colour is noted

B.WET REACTIONS

5. Action of dil H2SO4:

A little of the salt mixture is treated with Reddish brown gas evolves turns
dil.H2SO4, slightly warm ferrous sulphate solution black May be Nitrate

6. Action of conc. H2SO4:

A little of the salt mixture is treated with Reddish brown NO2 gas evolves May be Nitrate
conc.H2SO4, slightly warm which turns ferrous sulphate
solution black
S.No EXPERIMENT OBSERVATION INFERENCE
.

7. Copper turnings Test:

A little of the salt mixture is heated with Reddish brown gas evolves May be Nitrate
copper turnings and few drops of conc.H2SO4

8. Action of NaOH: No characteristic gas is observed Absence of Ammonium


salt
A little of the salt mixture is heated with
sodium hydroxide solution

Preparation of sodium carbonate extract:

About 1g of the salt is mixed with thrice its amount of Na2CO3 and 20 ml of distilled water. The solution is
then boiled well for about 10 minutes. Cool and filtered. The filtrate is known as sodium carbonate extract.
Neutralized sodium carbonate extract prepared by adding dilute acids in the following tests.

S.No EXPERIMENT OBSERVATION INFERENCE


.

9. Silver Nitrate Test:

To the 1ml of sodium carbonate extract, No characteristic precipitate is Absence of chloride,


dil.HNO3 is added until the effervescence observed bromide, iodide
stops and 1ml of AgNO3 is added

10. Barium Chloride Test:

To the 1ml of sodium carbonate extract, No white precipitate is formed Absence of Sulphate
dil.HCl is added until the effervescence stops
and 1ml of Barium chloride is added

11. Brown ring Test:

To the 1ml of sodium carbonate extract, dil. A dark brown ring is formed at Nitrate is confirmed
H2SO4 is added until the effervescence stops the junction of two solutions
and freshly prepared ferrous sulphate is
added. Then conc. H2SO4 is added in drops
along the sides of the test tube
12. Neutral Ferric chloride Test: No dark red/wine red colour Absence of Acetate
appeared
To the 1ml of sodium carbonate extract
neutral ferric chloride solution is added

13. Test with Sodium nitroprusside:

To the 1ml of sodium carbonate extract add No purple or violet colouration Absence of sulphide
dil.Ammonia solution and few drops of appears

sodium nitroprusside is added

D. Identification of Basic Radicals:

Group Separation

1. To the Salt mixture NaOH solution is added No pungent smelling gas evolved Absence of Group Zero
and heated the mixture gently

Preparation of Original salt solution:

The original salt solution is prepared by dissolving the given salt in distilled water, shake it and gently heated it

2. To the 1ml of original salt solution dil.HCl is A white precipitate is formed Presence of group I metal
added ions (Pb2+)

Confirmatory Test – Cation

Group-I

Take the white precipitate obtained (Group I


analysis) in a test tube and boil it with water. Yellow precipitate is formed Pb2+ is confirmed
To the dissolved precipitate KI solution is which dissolves on boiling

added

Confirmatory Test – Anion

Brown ring Test:

To the 1ml of sodium carbonate extract, dil. A dark brown ring is formed at Nitrate is confirmed
H2SO4 is added until the effervescence stops the junction of two solutions
and freshly prepared ferrous sulphate is
added. Then conc. H2SO4 is added in drops
along the sides of the test tube

Result

The Anion present: NITRATE

The Cation Present: LEAD

The given simple salt: LEAD NITRATE
