    The document describes tests performed on a white solid sample to identify its composition. 1) Tests for acid radicals showed the sample evolved a vinegar smell upon heating, indicating the presence of the CH3COO- ion. 2) A flame test produced a pale blue flame, suggesting the presence of the Pb2+ ion. 3) Further tests confirmed the presence of Pb2+ and CH3COO- ions. The sample was identified as lead(II) acetate, Pb(CH3COO)2.

    Aim: To analyse the given salt for acid radicals and basic radicals

    Physical Characteristics:
    State: Solid
    Colour: White
    Odour: Have Characteristic smell
    Solubility: Soluble in water
    Experiment Observation Inference

    1. Dry test tube heating: Evolution of vapour with vinegar CH3COO- may be present
    smell, turns blue litmus red
    A pinch of the sample is heated in
    a dry test tube

    2. Flame Test:

    Flame test is performed with A Pale blue flame is observed Pb2+ may be present
    conc. HCl

    3. Borax bead test:

    A. Colour of the bead in Oxidising


    flame-
    No characteristic observation in Cu2+ , Fe2+, Fe3+,Mn2+, Ni2+, Co2+
    B. Colour of the bead in Reducing both the flame. may be absent.
    flame-

    4. Dil. H2SO4 test: No characteristic observation CO32-, S2-, NO2-, SO32- may be
    absent
    A pinch of the sample is added to
    dil. H2SO4 in a test tube and then
    it is heated

    5. Conc. H2SO4 test: Evolution of colourless vapour CH3COO- may be present


    with vinegar smell, turns blue
    A pinch of the sample is added to
    litmus red.
    conc. H2SO4 in a test tube and
    then it is heated

    6. Test for NH4+: No ammonia gas is evolved NH4+ is absent

    A pinch of the sample is heated


    with conc. NaOH solution

    7. Wet Test For Acetate ion : (a) Evolution of colourless vapour CH3COO-(a) is present and
    with vinegar smell, turns blue confirmed
    (a) To the sample , Oxalic Acid
    litmus red.
    and few drops of Water is added.

    (b) Ester Test : To a small


    quantity of the sample ,2ml of (b) Pleasant fruity smell of ester.
    CH3COO-(a) is present and
    conc. H2SO4 is added and heated.
    confirmed.
    Then 1 ml of ethanol is added and
    poured into a beaker with water,
    stirred.

    8. Preparation of Original Solution is obtained It is labelled as Original Solution


    Solution (O.S.): (O.S.)

    A small portion of the sample is


    dissolved in water by shaking and
    the following tests are carried out
    with this solution

    9. To a part of the O.S., 1-2 ml of White ppt. is formed Group I i.e Pb2+ is present
    dil. HCl is added

    10. Through the above solution, A black ppt. is formed Group II present (Pb2+ is present)
    H2S is passed

    11. Confirmatory test for Pb2+:

    (i) (a)To a part of O.S KI Yellow PPT. is formed Pb2+ is confirmed


    solution is added.

    (b) To another part of O.S Yellow PPT. is formed Pb2+ is confirmed


    K2CrO4 solution is added .

    Result: The given salt contains Pb2+ as basic radical and CH3COO- as acid radicals. Therefore, the given
    salt is Pb(CH3COO- )2
