Potasyum Alev Testi

Potasyumu leylak/mor alevi ile tanımlama

Flame Tests Beginner (Middle School) 20 dak ~$6,00

Hedef

Potasyum iyonlarının oluşturduğu leylak/mor alev rengini gözlemlemek ve kobalt mavisi cam kullanarak sodyum kirliliğinden nasıl ayırt edileceğini öğrenmek.

Arka Plan

Potassium produces a pale lilac or violet flame when heated. The emission occurs at 766.5 nm and 769.9 nm (near-infrared/deep red doublet). Because the flame is quite faint and easily overwhelmed by sodium's intense yellow, cobalt blue glass is used as a filter to block sodium emission and reveal potassium's true color.

Güvenlik Uyarıları

  • Wear safety goggles at all times
  • Keep hair tied back near open flames
  • Handle HCl with care

Malzemeler

  • Potassium chloride (KCl) (1 g)
  • Hydrochloric acid (HCl) (10 mL)
    1M concentration
  • Cobalt blue glass (1 piece)
    For filtering sodium light

Ekipman

Bunsen burner Nichrome wire loop Watch glass Forceps

Prosedür

1

Clean the nichrome wire thoroughly by dipping in HCl and heating.

4

Now observe the flame through cobalt blue glass to filter out any sodium contamination.

5

Record the difference in appearance with and without the cobalt blue glass filter.

Beklenen Sonuçlar

Without the filter, you may see a faint lilac color possibly masked by yellow from sodium impurities. Through the cobalt blue glass, a clear violet/lilac flame should be visible as the glass absorbs the yellow sodium emission.

Temizlik

Clean the wire loop with HCl. Return cobalt blue glass to storage.
