Preliminary Tests
• Test 4. Add HCl
– Solubility Rule: All chlorides are soluble, except
those of Ag+, Pb2+ and Hg22+
– Reaction with HCl
• Ag+ + Cl AgCl(s)
All species are in aqueous solution unless indicated otherwise
![Page 18: Chem cations](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081720/544608f5b1af9f19098b45fe/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Preliminary Tests
• Test 5. Add sulfide
– Heating thioacetamide in water produces H2S
– Test 5a. Acid sulfide. The Group II cations precipitate
in acidic (0.3 M HCl) sulfide solution.
• Cu2+ + H2S CuS(s) + 2H+
– Test 5b. Basic sulfide. The Group III cations
precipitate when the solution is made basic

Groups II and III Cations
![Page 20: Chem cations](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081720/544608f5b1af9f19098b45fe/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Preliminary Tests
• Test 6. Reactions with Na2CO3
– Most metal carbonates are insoluble
• Ni2+ + CO32 NiCO3(s)
• Ca2+ + CO32 CaCO3(s)
• Exceptions: K+, Na+, NH4+
– In sulfide separation scheme
• most cations are removed in Groups I, II, and III as insoluble
chlorides or sulfides
• the remaining insoluble carbonates precipitate as the Group
IV cations.
– Ca2+, Mg2+, Ba2+
All species are in aqueous solution unless indicated otherwise
![Page 21: Chem cations](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081720/544608f5b1af9f19098b45fe/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Preliminary Tests
• Test 7. Add H2SO4
– Solubility rule
• Most sulfates are soluble, except those of Ba2+, Sr2+, and
Pb2+
– The insolubility of BaSO4 provides a basis to
distinguish it from the other Group IV insoluble
carbonates.
• Addition of acid causes carbonates to dissolve
– BaCO3(s) + 2H+ Ba2+ + H2O + CO2
• If H2SO4 is used as the acid, BaSO4 is formed.
– BaCO3(s) + 2H+ + SO42 BaSO4(s) + H2O + CO2
All species are in aqueous solution unless indicated otherwise
![Page 22: Chem cations](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081720/544608f5b1af9f19098b45fe/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Preliminary Tests
• Test 8. Flame test
– Used primarily to help identify soluble cations
• Solubility rule:
– All Group IA salts (Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+, Cs+) and NH4+ salts are soluble.
• Na+, K+ yield positive flame tests.
• NH4+ is also a soluble cation, but yields no useful result in
the flame test. It is identified from its properties of volatility
and basicity
– Add base, heat, and test with moist litmus
– NH4+ + OH NH3(g) + H2O(l)
All species are in aqueous solution unless indicated otherwise
![Page 23: Chem cations](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081720/544608f5b1af9f19098b45fe/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Preliminary Tests and Sulfide
Separation Scheme
• Reactions in the
preliminary tests can
be used in conjunction
with the sulfide
scheme to identify all
21 cations.
• Especially useful are
– reactions with NaOH
– reactions with NH3
