LEAD ACETATE

Batch 1

Original salt solution is made with distilled water

Preparation of soda extract- 0.5g salt + 2g Na2CO3 + 10ml distilled water, boiled for 5 minutes,
cooled and filtered

Anion analysis Observation Inference

Experiment
1. Salt + dil. H2SO4 Vinegar smell May be acetate ion
2. Confirmatory test: Wine red color Presence of acetate ion
Soda extract + Dil confirmed
HNO3+ neutral FeCl3
3. Salt + ethyl alcohol Fruity smell Presence of acetate ion
+conc.H2SO4 confirmed
Cation Analysis

4. Salt+ NaOH solution + No ammoniacal smell Absence of zero group

heat
5. O.S.S + dil.HCl White ppt Presence of group1
6. Dissolve the 1st group
ppt in hot distilled
water and divided into
2 parts
a. 1st part + KI solution Golden yellow ppt Presence of Pb2+ confirmed
b. 2nd part + lead yellow ppt Presence of Pb2+ confirmed
chromate solution
Result :
The given anion is acetate
