  2. Flame test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_test

    Flame test of a few metal ions A flame test involves introducing a sample of the element or compound to a hot, non-luminous flame and observing the color of the flame that results. [ 4 ] The compound can be made into a paste with concentrated hydrochloric acid, as metal halides , being volatile, give better results. [ 5 ]

  3. Qualitative inorganic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qualitative_inorganic_analysis

    The solution is then treated with various reagents to test for reactions characteristic of certain ions, which may cause color change, precipitation and other visible changes. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Qualitative inorganic analysis is that branch or method of analytical chemistry which seeks to establish the elemental composition of inorganic compounds ...

  4. Potentiometric titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentiometric_titration

    Potentiometric titrations were first used for redox titrations by Crotogino. He titrated halide ions with potassium permanganate using a shiny platinum electrode and a calomel electrode. He said that if an oxidizing agent is added to a reducing solution then the equilibrium between the reducing substance and reaction product will shift towards ...

  5. Carius halogen method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carius_halogen_method

    The Carius halogen method in analytical chemistry is a method for the quantitative determination of halogens in chemical substances. [1]A known mass of an organic compound is heated with fuming nitric acid in the presence of silver nitrate contained in a hard glass tube known as carius tube, in a furnace.

  6. Halide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halide

    Radii in picometers of common halogen atoms (gray/black) and the corresponding halide anions (blue) In chemistry, a halide (rarely halogenide [1]) is a binary chemical compound, of which one part is a halogen atom and the other part is an element or radical that is less electronegative (or more electropositive) than the halogen, to make a fluoride, chloride, bromide, iodide, astatide, or ...

  7. Beilstein test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beilstein_test

    The Beilstein test is a simple qualitative chemical test for organic halides. It was developed by Friedrich Konrad Beilstein. [1] A copper wire is cleaned and heated in a Bunsen burner flame to form a coating of copper(II) oxide. It is then dipped in the sample to be tested and once again heated in a flame.

  8. Flame ionization detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_ionization_detector

    The operation of the FID is based on the detection of ions formed during combustion of organic compounds in a hydrogen flame. The generation of these ions is proportional to the concentration of organic species in the sample gas stream. To detect these ions, two electrodes are used to provide a potential difference. The positive electrode acts ...

  9. Metal halides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_halides

    where M is the metal, X is the halogen, and MX n is the metal halide. Sample of silver chloride. In practice, this type of reaction may be very exothermic, hence impractical as a preparative technique. Additionally, many transition metals can adopt multiple oxidation states, which complicates matters. As the halogens are strong oxidizers ...
