  2. Precipitation (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precipitation_(chemistry)

    While precipitation reactions can be used for making pigments, removing ions from solution in water treatment, and in classical qualitative inorganic analysis, precipitation is also commonly used to isolate the products of an organic reaction during workup and purification operations. Ideally, the product of the reaction is insoluble in the ...

  3. Halogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen

    The halogens (/ ˈ h æ l ə dʒ ə n, ˈ h eɪ-,-l oʊ-,-ˌ dʒ ɛ n / [1] [2] [3]) are a group in the periodic table consisting of six chemically related elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and the radioactive elements astatine (At) and tennessine (Ts), though some authors [4] would exclude tennessine as its chemistry is unknown and is theoretically expected to ...

  4. Salting out - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salting_out

    Salting out (also known as salt-induced precipitation, salt fractionation, anti-solvent crystallization, precipitation crystallization, or drowning out) [1] is a purification technique that utilizes the reduced solubility of certain molecules in a solution of very high ionic strength.

  5. Salt (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(chemistry)

    Salts form upon evaporation of their solutions. [9] Once the solution is supersaturated and the solid compound nucleates. [9] This process occurs widely in nature and is the means of formation of the evaporite minerals. [10] Insoluble salts can be precipitated by mixing two solutions, one with the cation and one with the anion in it.

  6. Chemical garden - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_garden

    The chemical garden relies on most transition metal silicates being insoluble in water and colored. When a metal salt, such as cobalt chloride, is added to a sodium silicate solution, it will start to dissolve. It will then form insoluble cobalt silicate by a double displacement reaction. This cobalt silicate is a semipermeable membrane.

  7. Chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloride

    Salts such as calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride have varied uses ranging from medical treatments to cement formation. [4] Calcium chloride (CaCl 2) is a salt that is marketed in pellet form for removing dampness from rooms. Calcium chloride is also used for maintaining unpaved roads and for fortifying roadbases for new ...

  8. Cobalt(II) chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt(II)_chloride

    Cobalt(II) chloride is an inorganic compound, a salt of cobalt and chlorine, with the formula CoCl 2. The compound forms several hydrates CoCl 2 ·n H 2 O, for n = 1, 2, 6, and 9. Claims of the formation of tri- and tetrahydrates have not been confirmed. [4] The anhydrous form is a blue crystalline solid; the dihydrate is purple and the ...

  9. Crystallization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallization

    An example of this crystallization process is the production of Glauber's salt, a crystalline form of sodium sulfate. In the diagram, where equilibrium temperature is on the x-axis and equilibrium concentration (as mass percent of solute in saturated solution) in y-axis, it is clear that sulfate solubility quickly decreases below 32.5 °C.
