state the separation technique for silver choride and sodium trioxonitrate
DISTILLATION
Dissolve in water, filter, the AgNO3 is in the aqueous layer, the AgCl is on the filter paper, evaporate the solvent to recover the AgNO3.
I'm understanding what I'm see I want to know the direct separation method of silver chloride and sodium trioxonitrate.
The separation technique you can use to separate silver chloride (AgCl) from sodium trioxonitrate (NaNO3) is precipitation.
Here's how you can use precipitation to separate these two compounds:
1. Start with a mixture of AgCl and NaNO3 in a solution, such as water.
2. Add a reagent called a precipitating agent that selectively reacts with one of the compounds to form a solid precipitate while leaving the other compound in solution. In this case, to selectively precipitate AgCl, you can add a solution of silver nitrate (AgNO3).
3. The silver nitrate will react with the chloride ions (Cl-) from the AgCl to form a white precipitate of silver chloride (AgCl).
AgNO3 + NaCl -> AgCl + NaNO3
4. Sodium trioxonitrate (NaNO3) remains in the solution because it does not react with silver nitrate (AgNO3) to form a precipitate.
5. Allow the mixture to settle so that the precipitate of AgCl can separate from the solution.
6. Once the precipitate settles down, it can be separated from the liquid using techniques such as filtration or centrifugation.
7. After separating the precipitate, you can rinse it with a suitable solvent to remove any impurities or traces of the soluble compound.
8. The remaining liquid, which contains sodium trioxonitrate (NaNO3), can be further processed or purified if desired.
In summary, by adding silver nitrate to the mixture, a reaction occurs to selectively form a solid precipitate of silver chloride while leaving the sodium trioxonitrate in the solution, allowing for their separation.
