Question

Identify one cation and one anion in the given unknown salt m1 by performing dry test

Answer 1

Answer:

cation and anion are found when salts dissolves in H²O simpls Nacl

Answer 2

Dry tests are the tests that are done with solid salt which may be a mixture of salts or a single salt. This is the identification of colour,odour , temperature and nature of the ions present in the salt.

Explanation:

Identification of anionic radical by DRY Test:-

• In this small amount of salt is used and is observed for colour, small moisture

• The temperature should be room temperature at which the study is done.

• Carbonate, sulphide, sulphite, nitrate and acetate reacts with sulphuric acid to evolve various gases.

• The evolved gases are studied to collect the information of anionic radicals

Identification of cationic radical by DRY Test:-

Flame Test-The Flame test involves exposing the compound to a flame and identifying the compound by the flame colour produced. This method helps cation in salt.
