Study Notes
Qualitative Analysis
- The purpose of qualitative analysis is to identify the constituents of a substance, typically an inorganic salt.
Formation of a Salt
- The part contributed by the base in the formation of a salt is called the anion.
Analytical Techniques
- Macro analysis involves the use of a relatively large amount of substance, typically in the range of 0.1-1 gram.
- Micro analysis, on the other hand, requires a much smaller amount of substance, typically in the range of 1-100 milligrams.
Qualitative Analysis Procedures
- Systematic analysis of an inorganic salt involves the identification of both anions and cations present in the salt.
- Qualitative analysis typically involves easily perceptible reactions, such as color changes, precipitation, and gas evolution.
Nature of Qualitative Analysis
- Qualitative analysis is a non-quantitative analytical technique, meaning it does not provide information about the amount of substance present, but rather its composition.
