Aim
To identify the acid radical (anion) and the basic radical (cation) in a given inorganic salt.
Twelve salts and a hidden Salt X: test for the anion, run the cation groups, confirm, and write the result.
What you'll explore
- The anion Fizz, fumes, a white precipitate, the brown ring.
- The cation Group reagents in order, then a confirmatory test.
Who it's for
Class 11 and Class 12 chemistry, for CBSE, ICSE and State boards. It follows the practical in your textbook: finding the anion and cation in a salt.
Practical guide
