    Study Notes

    Group Reagents for Cation Classification

    • Group reagent for classification of Fe³⁺, Cr³⁺, and Al³⁺ cations: NH4Cl + NH4OH
    • Ca²⁺, Ba²⁺, and Sr²⁺ cations are classified using the reagent: (NH4)2CO3.

    Cations and Precipitation

    • Cations precipitated as sulphides from an ammonical solution using NH4Cl, NH4OH, and H2S: Fe²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Ni²⁺.
    • Sparingly soluble hydroxides formed with NH4Cl + NH4OH include: Fe(OH)₃, Cr(OH)₃, and Al(OH)₃.

    Cation Groups without Specific Reagents

    • No specific reagent for classification exists for alkali metal cations (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, etc.).

    Summary of Precitation Groups

    • Group cations with sparingly soluble hydroxides using NH4Cl + NH4OH are: Al³⁺, Fe³⁺, and Cr³⁺.

    Matching Cation Groups with Group Reagents and Precipitates

    • Fe³⁺, Cr³⁺, Al³⁺: Group reagent - NH4Cl + NH4OH; Precipitate forms - Fe(OH)₃, Cr(OH)₃, Al(OH)₃.
    • Ca²⁺, Ba²⁺, Sr²⁺: Group reagent - (NH4)2CO3; Precipitate forms - CaCO3, BaCO3, SrCO3.
