CONCLUSION : The anion in the salt solution is - Sulphite [SO,-] AIM — TO IDENTIFY THE CATION IN THE SALT BY USING THE FLAME TEST APPARATUS ~ A platinum wire fused in a glass rod, watch glass, bunsen burner. CHEMICALS ~ Conc. HCI, a sodium salt [e.g. NaCl], a potassium salt [e.g. KCI], a calcium salt [e.g Ca(NO,)9], a copper salt [e.g Cu(NO3)9]- PRINCIPLE OF THE FLAME TEST Certain salts essentially chlorides when heated in a non-luminous flame of a bunsen burner - volatize and ionize and the cations produced ~ impart a characteristic colour to the flame. Platinum wire The salt to be placed in the flame is placed on a Renan wire, Platinum is used in the flame test since: & It is non-reactive, is not oxidized in the flanieVand itself does not impart any colour to the flame. Y Metallic Chloride eat, Characteristic colour PROCEDURE FOR CONDUCTING THE FLAME TEST Step 1 - Cleaning the Platinum wire + A platinum wire is a short wire sealed into the end of a glass rod serving as a handle. + The free end of the platinum wire is immersed into a watch-glass - containing conc. HCl. + The wire is then heated in a non-luminous bunsen flame ~ till no colour is produced in the flame. Step 2 - Identifying the cation in the substance + Take a small amount of the salt - in the watch glass. «Add a few drops of conc. HCI - to the salt to make a paste. + Dip the clean platinum wire into the salt paste and hold it - in the lower end of the non-luminous zone of the bunsen flame. Step 3 - Observing the colour of the flame + The colour imparted to the bunsen flame is observed a] by the naked eye b] through cobalt blue glass. [+ PRECAUTIONS WHILE CONDUCTING FLAME TEST Cleaning the Platinum wire The platinum wire must be dipped for cleaning in cone.
