Questions and Answers

What type of tests are performed to confirm the presence or absence of anions in the analysis?

  • Titration tests and precipitation tests
  • Color tests and pH testing
  • Elimination tests and spot testing (correct)
  • Boiling tests and fusion tests

Why are spot tests directly made for most anions?

  • Anions are highly reactive
  • Anions are sufficiently different from each other (correct)
  • Most anions are similar to each other
  • Anions do not react with spot test reagents

What is the primary purpose of the dry heating test in identifying anions?

  • To confirm the presence of metallic ions
  • To provide important information about the acid radical present (correct)
  • To eliminate cations from the solution
  • To precipitate cations as oxides
