Overview
About this book
This book is divided into four parts:
Part I deals with Qualitative Inorganic Analysis. Systematic procedures of anion and cation analysis alongwith their confirmatory tests and spot tests are given. Detection of cations by flame photometry and atomic absorption spectroscopy are also incorporated. Besides chromatographic separation and identification of cations are also discussed Part II deals with volumetric analysis. The instrumental methods of volumetric analysis have also been incorporated Part III deals with gravimetric analysis. Estimation of one or more than one constituent in a solution and instrumental methods of quantitative analysis are also incorporated Part IV describes many inorganic preparations. These include simple salts, double salts, complex salts, amalgams, activated metals, organometallics and some other miscellaneous inorganic preparations. The uses of various compounds have also been mentioned

Part IQualitative Inorganic Analysis
Pages: 118
No chapter abstract available.
Chapter 1Qualitative Inorganic Analysis
Pages: 110
Qualitative analysis deals with identification of anions (acid radicals) and cations (basic radicals) present in a salt or a mixture of inorganic salts, alloys etc. A number of procedures are used to analyse a mixture. Normally, in qualitative analysis the mixture is first subjected to preliminary examination, which involve dry tests like colour, odour, action of heat, flame test, charcoal cavity test and borax bead test. The ions (anions and cations) suspected to be present are subsequently identified by wet tests and finally confirmed by their confirmatory tests.

Chapter 2Volumetric Analysis
Pages: 50
Volumetric analysis, also known as titrimetric analysis is a type of quantitative analysis involving measurement of volumes. The method is less laborious, fast and accurate compared to other methods of quantitative analysis.
Chapter 3Instrumental Methods of Volumetric Analysis
Pages: 23
We have so far studied volumetric analysis by measuring the volumes of solution taking part in a chemical reaction (Chapter 2) using a burette by the process known as titration. It is, however possible to carry out volumetric analysis using certain instruments. Such methods and called ‘Instrumental methods of volumetric analysis’. These methods include.
Part IIIGravimetric Analysis Estimation of More than one Constituent Present Together in a Solution Instrumental Methods of Quantitative Analysis

Chapter 4Gravimetric Analysis
Pages: 23
Gravimetric analysis constitutes a method of quantitative analysis. It involves quantitative estimation of various metals or anions associated with them. The method involves precipitation of an insoluble salt of an element or a compound which has to be quantitatively estimated from a solution, filtration, washing, drying, heating and finally weighing it or converting it into a pure stable compound of a definite composition and weighing it. As an example, for the estimation of barium, the method involves precipitation of barium from solution as insoluble BaSO4, filtering, washing, drying and finally weighing. On the other hand, in the estimation of iron, it is precipated from the solution as hydrated ferric oxide (ferric hydroxide) which is of variable composition and so it is heated to give the oxide, Fe2O3 which is finally weighed.
Chapter 5Estimation of more than one Constituent Present Together in a Solution
Pages: 14
So far we have described the estimation of a single constituent present in a solution. It is, however, important in certain cases to carry out estimation of more than one constituent present in a solution. This has special use in the analysis of alloys, which is commonly done in post graduate classes and also in industrial establishments.
Chapter 6Instrumental Methods of Quantitative Analysis
Pages: 9
The instrumental methods have been used for the detection of metals (cations) (For details see chapter 1, Section 1.8 and 1.9). The methods used are Flame Atomic Emission Spectrometry (FAES) and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). Both these methods can also be used for the estimation of metals.

Chapter 7Inorganic Preparations
Pages: 21
Cuprous chloride is used as a catalyst in organic reactions and in petroleum industry. It is also used in denitration of cellulose, as a condensing agent for soaps, fats and oil. In gas analysis, it is used to absorb carbon monoxide.
