GENERAL INTRODUCTION
Qualitative Analysis: The type of analysis that deals with the methods which are used to determine the constituents of a compound. Radical: A radical is defined as an atom or group of atoms which carries charge and behaves as a single unit in chemical reactions. Radicals carrying positive charge are called Basic Radicals and radicals carrying negative charge are called Acidic radicals. Sublimation: It is a process by which a salt directly changes into a gaseous phase without melting when heated. On cooling, vapours condense back to the solid state. Importance of Preliminary test in qualitative analysis Preliminary tests give authentic information about an ion in the salt. For example, golden yellow color in flame test shows the presence of sodium. In a charcoal cavity test, brown residue shows the presence of cadmium in a salt and so on.
