60 Chapter E3 21 Chemical Analysis Analytical chemistry deals with qualitative and quantitative analysis of substances. (vi) Tests for NH : It is a colourless gas with a characteristic ammonical smell. It gives white fumes of NH 4 Cl with HCl , Qualitative analysis : A salt consists of two parts known as radicals. The positively charged part of a salt (cation) which has been derived from a base is termed as basic radical and the negatively charged part of salt (anion) which has been derived from an acid is termed as acidic radical. In qualitative inorganic analysis, the given compound is analysed for the basic and acid radicals (i.e., the cations and the anions), that it contains. For NH 3 HCl NH 4 Cl. With Nessler’s reagents, it gives brown ppt. ID 3 White fumes NH 3 U 2 K 2 HgI4 Nessler ' s reagent D YG example zinc blende is analysed for the Zn 2 and S 2 ions that it contains.

Others have higher values hence not precipitated. values of chlorides are low, hence K SP Cu 2 , Cd 2 , Pb 2 , H 2 S gas in presence Sulphides ( CuS , As 2 S 3 K SP Hg 2 (II), Bi 3 , As 3 , of dil. HCl etc.) precipitated by low [S 2 ] ion. HCl (with Al 3 , Cr 3 , Fe 3 values of sulphides are low hence common H ion) decreases ionization of Sb 3 , Sn 2 III K SP H2S which gives low [S 2 ]. Hence II group is precipitated. Others with higher K SP values not precipitated. NH 4 OH in presence of NH 4 Cl Hydroxide, Al(OH )3 etc. K SP values of Al(OH )3 etc. are low. NH 4 Cl (with common NH 4 ion) decreases ionization of NH 4 OH giving low [OH ]. Hence group III is precipitated. IV Zn 2 , Ni 2 , Mn 2 , Co 2 H2S in Sulphides ( ZnS etc.) ammonical medium K SP values of sulphides of group IV are high hence precipitation takes place in higher [S 2 ]. Basic medium increases ionization of H 2 S increasing [S 2 ] hence precipitation of group IV.

It involves the measurement of the volume of a known solution required to bring about the completion of the reaction with a measured volume of the unknown solution. Titration : The process of addition of the known solution from the burette to the measured volume of solution of the substance to be estimated until the reaction between the two is just complete, is termed as titration. Thus, a titration involves two solutions; (i) Unknown solution : The solution consisting the substance to be estimated is termed unknown solution. The substance is termed titrate. (ii) Standard solution : The solution in which an accurately known amount of the reagent (titrant) has been dissolved in a known volume of the solution is termed standard solution. There are two types of reagents (titrants) : (a) Primary standards : These can be accurately weighed and their solutions are not to be standardised before use. Oxalic acid (H 2 C 2 O4.2 H 2 O) , potassium dichromate (K 2 Cr2 O7 ) , silver nitrate E3 NiCl2 2 NaHCO 3 NiCO3 2 NaCl H 2 O CO 2 of Volumetric analysis 60 sod. cobalti carbonate (Green colouration) addition 7 KI KCl 3 H 2 O O Hg When a rod dipped in HCl is brought on the mouth of the test tube, fumes of ammonium chloride are formed, NH 3 HCl NH 4 Cl White fumes To the aqueous solution of ammonium salt when Nessler’s reagents is added, brown coloured precipitate is formed. (CuSO 4.5 H 2 O) , ferrous ammonium [FeSO 4 (NH 4 )2 SO 4.6 H 2 O] , sodium thiosulphate (Na 2 S 2 O3.5 H 2 O) , etc., are the examples of primary standards. (b) Secondary standards : The solutions of these reagents are to be standardised before use as these cannot be weighed accurately. The examples are sodium hydroxide (NaOH ) , potassium hydroxide (KOH ) , hydrochloric acid (HCl) , sulphuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ) , potassium permanganate (KMnO4 ) , iodine, etc. Law of equivalence : It is applied in all volumetric estimations. According to it, the chemical substances react in the ratio of their chemical equivalent masses. Mass of substance A Chemical equivalent mass of A Mass of substance B Chemical equivalent mass of B or Mass of substance A Chemical equivalent mass of A Mass of substance B Chemical equivalent mass of B or gram equivalent of A gram equivalent of B or milli-gram equivalent of A milli-gram equivalent of B The point at which the amounts of the two reactants are just equivalent is known as equivalence point or end point. An auxiliary substance which helps in the usual detection of the completion of the titration or equivalence point or end point is termed as indicator, i.e., substances which undergo some easily detectable changes at the equivalence point are used as indicators. Methods of expressing concentrations of solutions The concentration of a solution can be expressed in various ways. (1) Percent by mass (2) Molarity (3) molality (4) Mole fraction (5) Normality Types of titrations : Titrations can be classified as : (1) Acid base titrations or acidimetry and alkalimetry (2) Oxidation reduction titrations or redox titrations (3) Precipitation titrations (4) Complexometric titrations. (1) Acid-base titrations : When the strength of an acid is determined with the help of a standard solution of base, it is known as acidimetry. Similarly, when the strength of a base (alkali) is determined with the help of a standard solution of an acid, it is known as alkalimetry. Both these titrations involve neutralisation of an acid with an alkali. In these titrations (iii) Iodimetric and iodometric titrations : The reduction of free iodine to iodide ions and oxidation of iodide ions to free iodine occurs in these titrations. H ions of the acid combine with OH ions of the alkali to form unionised molecules of water. This solution is first standardised before use. With the standard solution of I 2. Substances such as sulphite, thiosulphate, arsenite, etc., are estimated. (b) Iodometric titrations : In iodometric titrations, an oxidising agent is allowed to react in neutral medium or in acidic medium, with excess of potassium iodide to liberate free iodine. Alkali Salt Water or H A B OH B A H 2 O or H OH H 2 O KI I2 KI3 Potassium tri- iodide 60 Acid 2 I I 2 2e (oxidation) These are divided into two types : (a) Iodimetric titrations : These are the titrations in which free iodine is used. As it is difficult to prepare the solution of iodine (volatile and less soluble in water), it is dissolved in potassium iodide solution. E3 HA BOH BA H 2 O I 2 2e 2 I (reduction) KI oxidising agent I2 Free iodine is titrated against a standard reducing agent usually with sodium thiosulphate. Halogens, oxyhalogens, dichromates, cupric ion, peroxides, etc., can be estimated by this method. I2 Na 2 S 2 O3 2 NaI Na 2 S 4 O6 ID The end point in these titrations is determined by the use of organic dyes which are either weak acids or weak bases. These change their colours within a limited range of hydrogen ion concentrations, i.e., pH of the solution. Phenolphthalein is a suitable indicator in the titrations of strong alkalies (free from carbonate) against strong acids or weak acids. Methyl orange is used as an indicator in the titrations of strong acids against strong and weak alkalies. As no indicator gives correct results in the titrations of weak acids against weak bases, such titrations are performed by some other methods (physical methods). (2) Oxidation reduction titrations : The titrations based on oxidation-reduction reactions are called redox titrations. The chemical reactions proceed with transfer of electrons (simultaneous loss or gain of electrons) among the reacting ions in aqueous solutions. Sometimes these titrations are named after the reagent used, as: (i) Permanganate titrations : These are titrations in which potassium permanganate is used as an oxidising agent in acidic medium. The medium is maintained by the use of dilute sulphuric acid. Potassium permanganate acts as a self-indicator. The potential equation, when potassium permanganate acts as an oxidising agent, is : 2CuSO 4 4 KI Cu 2 I2 2 K 2 SO 4 I2 D YG U K 2 Cr2 O7 6 KI 7 H 2 SO 4 2 KMnO4 3 H 2 SO 4 K 2 SO 4 2 MnSO 4 3 H 2 O 5[O] or MnO4 8 H 5 e Mn 2 4 H 2 O Before the end point, the solution remains colourless (when KMnO4 solution is taken in burette) but after the equivalence point only ST U one extra drop of KMnO4 solution imparts pink colour, i.e., appearance of pink colour indicates the end point. Potassium permanganate is used for the estimation of ferrous salts, oxalic acid, oxalates, hydrogen peroxide, etc. The solution of potassium permanganate is always first standardised before its use. (ii) Dichromate titrations : These are titrations in which, potassium dichromate is used as an oxidising agent in acidic medium. The medium is maintained acidic by the use of dilute sulphuric acid. The potential equation is K 2 Cr2 O7 4 H 2 SO 4 K 2 SO 4 Cr2 (SO 4 )3 4 H 2 O 3[O] or Cr2 O72 14 H 6 e 2Cr 3 7 H 2 O The solution of potassium dichromate can be directly used for titrations. It is mainly used for the estimation of ferrous salts and iodides. In the titration of K 2 Cr2 O7 versus ferrous salt either an external indicator (potassium ferricyanide) or an internal indicator (diphenyl amine) can be used. Cr2 (SO 4 )3 4 K 2 SO 4 7 H 2 O 3 I2 In iodimetric and iodometric titrations, starch solution is used as an indicator. Starch solution gives blue or violet colour with free iodine. At the end point the blue or violet colour disappears when iodine is completely changed to iodide. (3) Precipitation titrations : The titrations which are based on the formation of insoluble precipitates, when the solutions of two reacting substances are brought in contact with each other, are called precipitation titrations. For example, when a solution of silver nitrate is added to a solution of sodium chloride or a solution of ammonium thiocyanate, a white precipitate of silver chloride or silver thiocyanate is formed. AgNO3 NaCl AgCl NaNO 3 AgNO3 NH 4 CNS AgCNS NH 4 NO 3 Such titrations involving silver nitrate are called argentometric titrations. (4) Complexometric titrations : A titration, in which an undissociated complex is formed at the equivalence point, is called complexometric titration. These titrations are superior to precipitation titrations as there is no error due to co-precipitation. Hg 2 2SCN Hg(SCN )2 Ag 2CN [ Ag(CN )2 ] EDTA (ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid) is a useful reagent which forms complexes with metals. In the form of disodium salt, it is used to estimate Ca 2 and Mg 2 ions in presence of eriochrome black- T as an indicator.

(i) 1 g equivalent mass of a substance reacts completely with 1 g equivalent mass of any other substance. 1 g equivalent mass of a substance means equivalent mass of the substance in grams. For example, 1 g equivalent mass of NaOH 40 g of NaOH 1 g equivalent mass of H 2 SO 4 49 g of H 2 SO 4 1 g equivalent mass of KMnO 4 in acidic medium 31.6 g of KMnO 4 1 g equivalent mass of hydrated oxalic acid 63 g of hydrated oxalic acid Note : Equivalent mass is a variable quantity and depends on the reaction in which the substance takes part. The nature of the reaction should be known before writing the gram equivalent mass of the substance. For example in the reactions. 2 NaCl 2 H 2 SO 4 2 NaHSO 4 2 HCl …..(i) 2 NaCl H 2 SO 4 Na 2 SO 4 2 HCl …..(ii) The value of g equivalent mass of H 2 SO 4 in reaction (i) is 98 g and in reaction (ii) 49 g.
