salt analysis summary short

Answer 1

What is Salt Analysis?

Salt analysis (also known as systematic qualitative analysis or qualitative inorganic analysis) involves the identification of the cation and anion of an inorganic salt. This is done by conducting a series of tests in a systematic manner and using the observations to confirm the absence or presence of specific cations and anions

Answer 2

(NH4)2SO4 + 2 NaOH --> NaSO4. +2NH3 + 2H2O

NH3 + HCL ---> NH4Cl

2 kIHgI4 + NH3 + 3KOH ---> HgO.Hg(NH2)I+ 7KI + 2H2O ( brown ppt)

result .. the given sample of inorganic salt contain NH4 and Cl-.
