Aim: To perform
limit test of chloride for given sample as per I.P 2010
Requirement: Pair of nessler
cylinder, beaker, glass rod, AgNO3 sol., dil.HNO3, std.
NaCl solution.
Principle:
Limit
test of Chloride is based upon simple reaction between AgNO3 and
soluble chloride to obtain AgCl which is insoluble in dil.HNO3 which
makes the solution turbid. The extent of turbidity depends upon the amount of
chloride present in substance and compared with std. turbidity produced by
addition of AgNO3 to std. sol. of known amount of NaCl in presence
of dil. HNO3.
Cl- + AgNO3 → AgCl + NO3-
NaCl + AgNO3 → AgCl + NaNO3
Procedure:
- Wash a pair
of nessler cylinder distilled water & dry it.
- Lable as
std. and test solution.
- Then
prepare solution as follows.

(modified limit test of chloride)
Requirement: Pair

Principle:

makes the solution turbid. The extent of turbidity depends upon the amount of
chloride present in substance and compared with std. turbidity produced by
addition of AgNO3 to std. sol. of known amount of NaCl in presence
of dil. HNO3. As potassium permanganate solution is purple coloured
which interfere in the comparison of opalescence or turbidity, therefore the
aqueous solution must first be decolorize. So when potassium permanganate
solution is treated with ethanol (reducing agent)in presence of heat, redox
reaction takes place (i.e KMnO4 get reduced to MNO2(PPT). the
filtrate of the reactions colorless which is used for limit test for chlorides

Aim: To perform
limit test of Arsenic for given sample as per I.P 2010.(Demonstration)
Requirement: Pair
of nessler cylinder, gutzeit apparatus, beaker, glass rod, pipette, stand,
Principle:
Limit
test of Arsenic is based on the reaction of arsenic gas with hydrogen ion to
form yellow stain on mercuric chloride paper in presence of reducing agents
like potassium iodide. It is also called as Gutzeit test and requires special
apparatus.
Arsenic,
present as arsenic acid in the sample is reduced to arsenious acid by reducing
agents like potassium iodide, stannous acid, zinc, hydrochloric acid, etc.
Arsenious acid is further reduced to arsine (gas) by hydrogen and reacts with
mercuric chloride paper to give a yellow stain. The depth of yellow stain on
mercuric chloride paper will depend upon the quality of arsenic present in the
sample.
Chemical
reaction:
H3AsO4 +H2SnO2 →H3AsO3 +H2SnO3
Arsenicacid Arseniousacid
H3AsO3 +3H2 → AsH3 +3H2O

mixture of concentrated H2SO4 (6 ml) amd water (60 ml) to
the boiled solution slowly with constant stirring. Hot liquid is filtered and
kept aside for crystallization. The boric acid is filtered washed with water to
remove soluble sulphates. Dry boric acid at room temperature and weigh. Report
the yield of boric acid in grams.

rapidly oxidize on exposure to moist air. It is odorless and is characterized
through its metallic taste (styptic) taste. It is soluble in water but
insoluble in alcohol.

resembling that of washing soda (sodium carbonate). Sodium
bicarbonate is also known as baking soda.
Use:
Sodium bicarbonate is used to relieve heartburn, sour stomach, or acid
indigestion by neutralizing excess stomach acid.

Requirements:
Chemicals &
Reagents: Copper sulphate powder, potassium ferrocyanide, H2S water,
dilute NaOH, dilute NH4OH, potassium iodide solution, barium
chloride solution, lead acetate, ammonium acetate, dilute NaOH, iodine
solution, strontium chloride.
Glassware: Test tube,
beaker, funnel watch glass, spatula
Chemical
formula: CuSO4.5H2O
Theory:
Cupric sulfate is
a white or off-white solid. The anhydrous salt is colourless but the
hydrated salt is blue in colour. It readily dissolves in water but is insoluble
in alcohol. The pentahydrate (CuSO4·5H2O),
the most commonly encountered salt, is bright blue.
Uses: It is a potent emetic
and is used as an antidote for poisoning by phosphorus.

Procedure:
Disperse 5.0 g in 100 ml of water, heat to 37
̊C,
add 100.0 ml of 0.1 M hydrochloric acid previously heated to 37 ̊C and stir continuously, maintaining the
temperature at 37 ̊C; the pH of the
solution, at 37 ̊C, after 10, 15 and 20
minutes, is not less than 1.8, 2.3 and 3.0 respectively and at no time is more
than 4.5. Add 10.0 ml of 0.1 M hydrochloric acid previously heated to 37 ̊C, stir continuously for 1 hour
