pH Adjustment on Cation Separation
1. Separation of Group II and III with S
• Group II precipitates at pH 0.5
• Group III precipitates at pH 9
2. Separation of Group III and IV with S → pH must be set not too high so that the Group IV
does not precipitate, namely by adding buffer 𝑁𝐻4 𝑂𝐻 + 𝑁𝐻4 𝐶𝑙
3. Separation of Group IV and V with 𝐶𝑂3
• pH should not be made too high for Mg Group V doesn't settle
• On the other hand, a low pH will cause 𝐶𝑂3 to break down into 𝐶𝑂2.
