Introduction/Background:

 

The process of anion analysis is very similar to cation analysis, but it is simpler, because separations are typically not required. During this process, known solutions of four common anions are analyzed: PO42- (Phosphate), Cl- (Chloride), SO42- (Sulfate), and NO3- (Nitrate). Anion analysis uses reactions to identify the individual anions, and then the anions present in the unknown solution are identified.

 

Purpose:

 

To identify the anions present in a mixture of solutions.
