Natriumchlorid und Natriumchlorat unterscheiden?
Ich habe einen pulverförmigen Feststoff und möchte feststellen, ob es Natriumchlorid (Kochsalz) oder Natriumchlorat (starkes Oxidationsmittel) ist. Ich möchte es nicht mit Puderzucker mischen und versuchen anzuzünden.
Make an aqueous solution by desting a spatula tip of the salt in a few milliliters. Water dissolves. Then add a drop of silver nitrate solution (about 5%). NaCl produces a white precipitate of sparingly soluble silver chloride. A precipitation reaction remains in the chlorate.
Theoretically correct, but problematic in practice, because there is hardly any chloride-free sodium chlorate (except p.a. product) due to the preparation process. You also forgot acidification with nitric acid.
Look at the crystals with a strong magnifying glass, sodium chloride forms dice.
