Question

How is the estimation of halogens done by carius method?

Answer 1

carbon and hydrogen present in the compound are oxidised to carbon dioxide and water. The halogen present forms the corresponding silver halide (AgX). It is filtered, washed, dried and weighed.

Let the mass of organic compound taken = m g

Mass of AgX formed = m1 g

1 mol of AgX contains 1 mol of X

Mass of halogen in m1 g of AgX = (atomic mass of X x m1)/(molecular mass of AgX)

Answer 2

The Carius halogen method in analytical chemistry is a method for the quantitativedetermination of halogens in chemical substances. A known mass of an organic compound is heated with fuming nitric acid in the presence of silver nitrate contained in a hard glass tube known as carius tube, in a furnace.
