  2. Winkler titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winkler_titration

    Dissolved oxygen (D.O.) is widely used in water quality studies and routine operation of water reclamation facilities to analyze its level of oxygen saturation. In the test, an excess of manganese(II) salt, iodide (I − ) and hydroxide (OH − ) ions are added to a water sample causing a white precipitate of Mn(OH) 2 to form.

  3. Gravimetric analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravimetric_analysis

    Gravimetric analysis describes a set of methods used in analytical chemistry for the quantitative determination of an analyte (the ion being analyzed) based on its mass. The principle of this type of analysis is that once an ion's mass has been determined as a unique compound, that known measurement can then be used to determine the same analyte's mass in a mixture, as long as the relative ...

  4. Sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfate

    This is a common laboratory test to determine if sulfate anions are present. The sulfate ion can act as a ligand attaching either by one oxygen (monodentate) or by two oxygens as either a chelate or a bridge. [7] An example is the complex Co 2 (SO 4)] + Br − [7] or the neutral metal complex PtSO 4 (PPh 3) 2] where the sulfate ion is acting as ...

  5. Analysis of water chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_water_chemistry

    Chemical water analysis is carried out on water used in industrial processes, on waste-water stream, on rivers and stream, on rainfall and on the sea. [1] In all cases the results of the analysis provides information that can be used to make decisions or to provide re-assurance that conditions are as expected.

  6. Qualitative inorganic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qualitative_inorganic_analysis

    This includes ions which form sulfides that are insoluble at high concentrations. The reagents used are H 2 S in the presence of NH 4 OH. NH 4 OH is used to increase the concentration of the sulfide ion, by the common ion effect - hydroxide ions from NH 4 OH combine with H + ions from H 2 S, which shifts the equilibrium in favor of the ionized ...

    Chemical tests for cyanide test for the presence of cyanide, CN −; Copper sulfate tests for the presence of water; Flame tests test for metals; The Gilman test tests for the presence of a Grignard reagent; The Kjeldahl method quantitatively determines the presence of nitrogen; Nessler's reagent tests for the presence of ammonia

  8. Benedict's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benedict's_reagent

    The net reaction between an aldehyde (or an alpha-hydroxy-ketone) and the copper(II) ions in Benedict's solution may be written as: RCHO + 2 Cu 2+ + 5 OH − → RCOO − + Cu 2 O + 3 H 2 O. The hydroxide ions in the equation forms when sodium carbonate dissolves in water. With the citrate included, the reaction becomes:

  9. Sodium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_sulfate

    Sodium sulfate is a typical electrostatically bonded ionic sulfate. The existence of free sulfate ions in solution is indicated by the easy formation of insoluble sulfates when these solutions are treated with Ba 2+ or Pb 2+ salts: Na 2 SO 4 + BaCl 2 → 2 NaCl + BaSO 4. Sodium sulfate is unreactive toward most oxidizing or reducing agents.
