Qualitative Analysis of Cations Short Overview The most common cations have been placed into five groups based upon solubility in aqueous solutions when different reagents are added. The reactions which occur are useful in identifying the presence of these cations in unknown samples. The process of identifying the cations is called qualitative analysis. The purpose of this experiment is to identify which cations are present in unknown solutions. A data sheet was not prepared for this experiment

In order to determine the acidity of certain substances‚ we used moist and dry pH paper (litmus tests)‚ and observed the results. First we used dry pH paper to test the acidity of household ammonia‚ and it turned yellow. According to the legend‚ this indicates a weak acid. This is‚ however‚ not accurate as the vapor of the household ammonia wasn’t able to react as strongly with the pH paper since it was dry. Then‚ we used moist DI water pH paper with the same substance‚ household ammonia‚ and it

Separation of Amino Acids by Cation Exchange Chromatography Introduction and Purpose: Amino acids are small biomolecules that have a carboxylic acid backbone in common‚ as well as an amino group attached to a saturated carbon. There are many amino acids‚ but there are 20 most commonly know amino acids. Amino acids are the fundamenta building blocks of other biomolecules like proteins and ezymes (Davidson‚ 2015). This experiment examined a mixture of 3 amino acids. The purpose of this experiment

Introduction The purpose of this experiment was to find the identity of the unknown compound #12. This was done both qualitatively and quantitatively. The qualitative observations were used to determine the functional group that was in the unknown‚ the quantitative results were used to determine the molar mass through Duma’s method. The types of compounds that were used in testing were all functional groups‚ Aldehyde‚ Ketone‚ Alcohol and‚ Ester. Functional groups are a portion of a molecule that

Qualitative Analysis Lab Report Organic Chemistry Laboratory II ABSTRACT: The purpose of this lab was to separate and purify two unknown compounds‚ one solid and one liquid‚ from an ethereal solution using the techniques of chemically active extraction‚ vacuum filtration‚ simple distillation‚ and recrystallization. Then identifying information was compiled about these unknowns by obtaining experimental melting/boiling point ranges‚ and analyzing IR and proton/carbon NMR spectrums It was determined

In the lab‚ the purpose was to standardize a KMnO4 solution than using it to evaluate how close a H2O2’s concentration was to its labeled concentration. In this lab‚ it was decided to compare the concentration of new Publix brand hydrogen peroxide to an old sample of the same solution. From the data collected in the first part by titrating a solution of FeSO4*7H2O with the KMnO4 solution‚ it was determined that the concentration was .028M MnO4-. This was able to be done because a known amount of

TITLE: Qualitative Analysis Of Cations: Ca2+‚ Ba2+‚ Mg2+‚ Zn2+ and Al3+ OBJECTIVE: • To identify the cations in known and unknown samples. • To construct a logical flow chart for identifying the components of a mixture of unknown cations. INTRODUCTION: In this experiment we will study about qualitative analysis of cations: Ca2+‚ Ba2+‚ Mg2+‚ Zn2+ and Al3+. Qualitative analysis is an analytical procedure in which the question ‘what is present?’ is answered. In a systematic qualitative analysis

Abstract Chemically active extraction was used to separate two unknown compounds from each other and to determine what compound class each compound belongs. The solid unknown was purified by recrystallization and its melting point range was determined to be 109-111°C. The liquid unknown was purified by simple distillation and its boiling point was determined to be 95°C. An IR spectrum was collected for each of the purified compounds; the solid was determined to be 3-toluic acid and the liquid was

OBJECTIVE The main objective of this experiment is to carry out qualitative analysis to identify metal cations in unknown solution 1. INTRODUCTION An unknown material can be determined by using simple chemical tests and separations which is called as inorganic qualitative analysis. The separation of cations depends on the difference in their propensity to form precipitates. Separation scheme is used to classify cation into five groups on the basis of their physical and chemical behavior opposed
