Questions and Answers

What is the principle of gravimetric analysis that involves the reaction of a reagent with an analyte to form a solid product?

Reagent + Analyte → Solid Product

What are the desired properties of a solid product in precipitation analysis?

Very insoluble, easily filterable, very pure, and known and constant composition

How can the solubility of a precipitate be decreased?

By decreasing the temperature of the solution, using a different solvent, or taking advantage of the common ion effect

What is the significance of 'like dissolves like' in precipitation analysis?
