How do you explain the detection of HI group basic radicals based on application of solubility product?

Answer»

Group reagent: NH4OH ⇌ NH4+ + OH ; NH4Cl ⇌ NH4+ + Cl

Radicals: Al3+, Cr3+, Fe3+

Here NH4Cl is a strong electrolyte under goes complete dissociation where as NH4OH is a weak electrolyte under goes partial dissociation and attains equilibrium between it’s ions and molecules. In this solution because of common ion (NH4+) effect supression of degree of dissociation of NH4OH takes place. As a result [OH] decreases. Hence the metal radical forms it’s respective hydroxides [Al(OH)3, Cr(OH)3, Fe(OH)3]. Whose solubility product is less than ionic product. Hence forms precipitate.
