Recrystallization Method

test for Cl-

= dilute nitric acid and silver nitrate > white ppt = conc. H2SO4 > misty white fumes (HCl)

= prevents escape of volatile liquids = allows for complete reaction > increase rate of reaction/ increase yield of product

= results are within +- 0.1/0.2 cm3

Tollen's reagent

= silver nitrate and NH3 = condition > heat = positive > silver mirror (aldehyde)

what neutralises excess acid?

= sodium hydrogen carbonate = effervescence (CO2)

Advantage of quenching

= solid needs to dissolve in reaction mixture before quench

Calibrate pH meter

= use alkaline buffer solution and acidic buffer solution = then measure pH

why read from top of meniscus

= volume decrease > pipette is calibrated to be measured from bottom = volume stays the same > burette is measured by dif in two readings

Why Kc calculated with moles

= volumes all cancel

The fingerprint region could be used to distinguish compounds.
