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

Experiments with Metals and Ions of Metals Introduction Metals are similar in their physical properties in general‚ but they are not identical. Most of the metals are solids; few of them are liquids‚ such as mercury and cesium. Density of metals is not similar also. For example‚ sodium has density of 0.97g/cm3 while lead has density of 11.4g/cm3. Melting point of sodium is 98.0oC while for lead it is 327.6oC. Metals have the capability to lose electrons when they react with non-metals such as

Introduction Hypothesis: The rate of enzyme reaction of invertase decreases and the reaction eventually stops as the heavy metal ions inhibit the enzyme reactions. Biological principle: Heavy metal ions are non-competitive inhibitors. They do not compete

Ocean County College Department of Chemistry Identification of Metallic Ions Purpose: The purpose of this lab exercise was to perform and observe the flame tests of some alkali and alkaline earth metal ions. When electrons in metallic ions are grounded‚ their configuration is stable. In other words‚ the loosely bound electrons in the valence shell of the atom are satisfied at their “low” energy state. They do not require to be balanced by emitting any type of radiation or receiving any

We will use basic lab equipment provided in our Labpaq‚ and follow all safety precautions in this lab. From reading the discussion and review‚ we understand that the normal configuration of the electrons is called “the ground state”. We understand that they are

Understanding ion permeability is vital to knowing how it establishes a membrane potential‚ and how it eventually leads to the contraction of muscle cells. This was done using crayfish tail muscles. Lateral and medial tail muscles from the tail of a crayfish were excised. These muscles were then placed into solutions with different types of ion concentrations. Usage of different ion concentrations was necessary in practicing how to measure resting membrane potentials accurately. Measurements with

methods were examined in this investigation. First‚ ion-exchange chromatography was used. This method separates ions and polar molecules based on their affinity to the ion exchanger [2]. Specifically‚ cation-exchange chromatography was performed‚ a technique that uses a negatively charged ion exchange resin with an affinity for molecules with a net positive charge. Anion-exchange chromatography relies on the same principal‚ but with a positively charged ion exchange resin with an affinity
