SYSTEMATIC ANALYSIS OF GIVEN SIMPLE SALT
S Experiment Observation
1 Colour of the salt blue
Green
Pale Green
Colourless
2 Appearance of the Salt Crystalline
Powdery
3 Solubility in water Soluble
Insoluble
Action of heat : i)Colourless, odourless gas
4. Little of the salt is heated in a dry test tube turning lime water milky.
ii)Reddish brown gas.
iii)Pungent smelling gas
giving dense white fumes with May be ammonium
glass rod dipped in conc.HCl.
iv)No characteristic change
Flame test :
5. Little of the salt is made into a paste with conc. i)Brick red flame
Inference
May be copper salt
May be copper salt
May be ferrous salt
Absence of copper and ferrous
Salts
May be Sulphate, nitrate, Chloride
May be Carbonate or Sulphide
May be nitrate, sulphate, chloride
May be carbonate or sulphide
May be carbonate
May be nitrate
Absence of carbonate, nitrate,
ammonium.
Presence of Calcium

HCl in a watch glass and it is burnt by the non
luminous part of the Bunsen flame using a glass
rod
Ash test:
Little of the salt is taken in a watch glass and
ii)Bluish Green flame
iii)No characteristic flame

No characteristic coloured ash

Presence of Copper
Absence of calcium and Copper

Absence of Aluminium, Zinc and

mixed with conc. HCl and cobalt nitrate Magnesium
solution. Dipped in a filter paper and burnt.
7. Action of dil.HCl i)Colourless, odourless gas Presence of carbonate is confirmed
Salt + dil.HCl with brisk effervescence
turning lime water milky Absence of carbonate
ii)No Brisk effervesence
8. Copper turning test: Reddish brown gas Presence of nitrate
Salt + Copper turnings + conc.H2SO4 and heated No reddish brown gas Absence of nitrate
9. Action of NaOH: Pungent smelling gas with the Presence of Ammonium
Salt + NaOH and heated smell of ammonia gives dense
white fumes with rod dipped
in conc. HCl.
No Pungent smelling gas Absence of ammonium
10 Chromyl chloride test: Red orange vapours evolved Presence of chloride confirmed
. Salt + K2Cr2O7 + conc.H2SO4 and heated. No red orange vapours Absence of chloride
evolved
Preparation of Sodium Carbonate extract :
Salt +Na2CO3 + distilled water, Boiled, Cooled and filtered. The clear filtrate is called sodium
carbonate extract.
11. AgNO3 test: Curdy white precipitate Presence of chloride
Extract + dil. HNO3 + AgNO3 No curdy white precipitate Absence of chloride

12. Lead acetate test: White precipitate Presence of sulphate
Extract + CH3COOH +Lead acetate No white precipitate Absence of sulphate
13. BaCl2 test: White precipitate Presence of sulphate confirmed
Extract + dil. HCl +BaCl2 No White precipitate Absence of sulphate
14. Brown Ring test:
Extract + dil. H2SO4 + freshly prepared Brown ring is formed Presence of nitrate confirmed
FeSO4 and conc. H2SO4 is added along the
sides of the test tube No brown ring is formed Absence of nitrate
Analysis Of Basic Radicals
Preparation of Original Solution:
Salt + water (dil. HCl) gives original solution
Analysis Of Ammonium: Reddish brown precipitate Presence of ammonium
Salt Solution + NaOH + Nessler’s reagent (zero group)
No reddish brown precipitate Absence of ammonium
Group Separation
1. Original Solution + dil. HCl No White precipitate Absence of I group lead
2. Original Solution + dil. HCl + H2S gas is Black precipitate Presence of copper
passed No Black precipitate Absence of II group copper
3. Original Solution + NH4Cl + NH4OH Grass green precipitate presence of III group ferrous iron.
soluble in dil HCl is obtained.
No Grass green precipitate absence of III group ferrous iron.
