ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I place my sincere thanks to my chemistry teacher Mrs. Manimala Bhattacharya for her
guidance and advices to complete my work successfully. I also thank our principal Mrs.
Nina Col for providing me all the facilities to finish the project on time.
I also take this opportunity to place on record my deep gratitude to LORD ALMIGHTY
for the countless blessings showered on me while doing the work and to complete it.
Last but not least I thank my parents for their encouragement and support in my humble
venture.

Introduction
Theory: Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. Smallamount of iron and lead
are also present. This dissolves in 50%nitric acid and generates the ions of the
constituting metals in solutions. Presence of these ions in the solution can be
conformed by qualitative inorganic analysis scheme.
(ii)Add to it about 10ml of 50% nitric acid. Heat the contents in a fume-closet until the brass pieces
dissolve. Concentrate the solution to a pasty mass.
(iii)Dissolve the residue in about 10ml of hot distilled water and filter if there is any turbidity. The
solution so obtained will be the original solution for inorganic analysis.
(iv)Follow the following procedure for detection of various cations present in the original solution:-
2. Pass H2S gas through above Black ppts Gr.II or Cu2+ is present.
solution.
3. Filter & preserve the filtrate
for the test of Zn2+.
4. Dissolve the black ppts in Bluish Green Sol. Cu2+ present
50% hot nitric acid.
5. Add excess of NH4OH in Deep blue colour Cu2+ confirmed
above sol.
6. Boil off H2S gas from filtrate. Dirty-white ppts Zn+ may be present
Add NH4OH into it and pass H2S
gas through the ammonical
solution.
7. Filter the dirty-white ppts. Bluish white ppts. Zn2+ presence confirmed
Dissolve the in minimum amount
of dil. HCl. Boil off H2S. Cool
and add potassium ferrocynide
sol. into it.
Experiment #2
Aim: To find out qualitatively the constituents present in the given sample
of duralumin alloy.
Procedure: Boil the alloy with concentrated nitric acid and evaporate the
solution to obtain a pasty mass. This treatment will convert all metals except ‘Si’
into nitrates which are soluble in water. Extract the pasty mass with water, when
nitrates of Al, Cu, Mg, and Mn will go into solution leaving a white residue.
