Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which technique is commonly used to separate and identify anions in a mixture?
  • Step 1: Understand what anions are. Anions are negatively charged ions.
  • Step 2: Learn that mixtures can contain different types of ions, including anions.
  • Step 3: Know that separating and identifying these anions is important in chemistry.
  • Step 4: Discover that ion chromatography is a technique used for this purpose.
  • Step 5: Realize that ion chromatography works by passing a mixture through a special column that separates the anions based on their charge and size.
  • Step 6: Understand that after separation, the anions can be identified using detectors.
