Question

Identify one cation and one anion in the given unknown salt M_{1} by performing dry tests.

Answer 1

Answer:

Identify one cation and one anion in the given unknown salt M_{1} by performing dry tests.

Answer 2

Anion and cationic radicals of inorganic salts are identified with the help of Dry and wet test of the salts

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, nitrite and acetate reacts with sulphuric acid to evolve various gases.

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

Identification of radical by WET Test

• A Confirmatory test of anions and cations is carried out by dissolving in water. It is soluble in water and then using sodium carbonate extract.

• Using sodium extract the confirmatory test of anions is done.
