You are the manager of a chemical stockroom, and find a bottle containing approximately one liter of a clear and colorless solution of unknown identity and concentration. Your only clue to its identity is that it was found between bottles of silver fluoride and sodium fluoride, so it is likely an aqueous solution of one of those two compounds. You will need to develop a procedure to determine the following:
a) The identity of the unknown solution
b) The concentration of the unknown solution
Write out a precise procedure, which includes all glassware, reagents, and steps. You will also need to write the calculations that you would need to determine the concentration of the solution. Assume that you have access to any laboratory equipment and any reagent you might need. You observed some examples of laboratory equipment within the Virtual Chemistry Laboratory simulations. You may visit
the virtual lab at chemcollective.org to refamiliarize yourself with this equipment or to try out some techniques. To complete this assignment, consider both the techniques learned in the lab simulations and the information learned in lecture.

Respuesta :

The composition of the bottle can be confirmed by qualitative analysis.

How do you identify sodium fluoride?

The term qualitative analysis refers to the procedure that we use to identify the substances that are contained in an unknown substances. In this case, we have to carry out a series of test in order to ascertain that the sample is NaF.

Now, we have to divide the sample into two and subject the first part to a flame test. If a yellow flame is observed then the sodium ion is present.

To the second portion we have to add concentrated  sulfuric acid. The occurrence of oily droplets could signal the presence of the fluoride ion. If sad is added to this reaction mixture and heated before water is added, the appearance of a white gelatinous deposit confirms the presence of the fluoride ion.
