Qual II Separation and Identification of the Group II Hydroxides in an Unknown
Goals • To use the qual scheme provided to ____________________________ the ions Zn+2, Al+3, Cu+2, Ni+2, Co+2, Fe+3, and Mn+2 from each other so their presence can be verified
The standard qual. • The standard qual analysis scheme for cations begins by separating ions into groups (cation groups) based on __________ of their _________, _________, __________, and _______________. • Each group, which consists of a small number of cations, is then analyzed further. • Usually, additional reactions are carried out that _________ ions in the group from each other, and then _______________ tests are performed to _________________________________________.
Cation groups. • The initial separation into cation groups is accomplished in the following order: • Cation group I: Ag+, Hg22+, Pb2+ are ________ as their __________. • Cation group II: Cu2+, Hg2+, Pb2+, Sn4+, Sn2+, Bi3+, Sb3+, Cd2+, As3+ are __________ as ________ from their acidic solution. • All sulfides are black, except CdS (orange), As2S2 (yellow), SnS2 (yellow), Sb2S3 (orange). • !!! Abbreviated scheme: only Bi3+ and Sn4+ and no sulfur containing reagent that has a strong odor.
Cation groups cont’d. • Cation group III: Co2+, Ni2+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Al3+, Cr3+, Zn2+. • All ions in this group, except ______ and ____ are precipitated as s__________ from a slightly basic solution. • Under these conditions ____ and ____ precipitate as ______________. • !!! Abbreviated group: Al3+, Zn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Fe3+, Mn2+ and Cu2+ (group II) are precipitated as ____________, except zinc and aluminum that form colored amphoteric solids
Groups cont’d. • Cation group IV: Ba2+, Sr2+, Ca2+ are precipitated as _________ from a slightly basic solution (all white precipitates). • Cation group V “soluble group”: Mg2+, NH4+, Na+, K+ • All these separations are based on differences in _________ and formation of complex ions.
Qual approach • Sometimes the _______ of one precipitate obscures the ________ of the other. • For example, PbS is black and Sb2S3 is orange. • So if you have both present, you see ______, but no ____________. • To resolve such difficulties, the qual analysis of a sample is usually approached ___________. • First, reactions are carried out to ________ ions from each other. • Then, the tests are performed to confirm either the presence or absence of each ion.
LeChatelier’s principle in qual. • The separations demonstrate the concept of chemical equilibrium and Le’Chatelier’s principle, which states that if a stress is placed on a system, then the system shifts to minimize the effect of that stress. • The idea of shifting equilibrium one way or another is frequently used in qualitative analysis experiments. • Qualitative analysis separations usually involve one of three types of equilibrium:
Solubility Equilibrium: • AgCl (s) ↔ Ag+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) • The solubility of AgCl will be decreased by addition of Cl- in form of _____. • Cl- from the _____ is the same as Cl- from the _____ • The AgCl solubility is shifted to the ____when ____ is added
Acid-base equilibrium • NH3(aq) + H+(aq) ↔ NH4+(aq) • Adding acid (H+) shifts equilibrium to the ______
Complexation Equilibrium • Ag+ (aq) + 2 NH3 (aq) → Ag(NH3)2+ • If the amount of ammonia is decreased the equilibrium is shifted to the ______
All three equilibria: • All five substances are present: AgCl, Ag+, Cl-, H+, NH3 • A single change effects all three equilibria: • If more acid is added (H+), the reaction NH3(aq) + H+(aq) ↔ NH4+(aq) is shifted to the _____, which decreases the concentration of _______. • This will decrease the amount of _____ available for reaction Ag+ (aq) + 2 NH3 (aq) → Ag(NH3)2+ • Thus, will also increase the concentration of _____ • The increase in -___ will shift the equilibrium in reaction AgCl (s) ↔ Ag+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) to the ____ forming more _______
To obtain correct results • ___________________________ to insure that your sample is not contaminated with other ions • _________________________ to insure that one substance does not mask the test for another • For ppt.s, __________ are a critical step • Use proper ________________________________ • Insure that the reagents are _______________ so that the reaction occurs throughout the test tube • Do not __________________ until you are finished!!!! • Remember: you have 2 weeks for this one, if you need it
S.II • Use half of unknown • Mix it up and get some of the _______, if any appears to be present • Add 3M NH3 (NH4OH) until you do not notice more solid (precipitate) forming • This step separates the ions that you are interested in from other _______ that may be present • Mn+ + n OH- M(OH)n ppt (Mn represents any metal ion)
