Potassium Sulfate AR 500g*
Potassium Sulfate AR (Analytical Reagent grade) 500g is primarily used as a chemical reagent for various analytical procedures, including preparing standard solutions for potassium ion analysis, precipitation reactions to test for the presence of barium ions, and as a component in specific chemical synthesis reactions due to its high purity and known chemical composition.
Potassium ion analysis:
The most common use is to create a standard solution for accurately measuring potassium ion concentrations in a sample using techniques like flame photometry or ion selective electrodes.
Precipitation reactions:
Since barium ions readily precipitate with sulfate ions, potassium sulfate can be used to test for the presence of barium in a solution.
Chemical synthesis:
Depending on the specific reaction, potassium sulfate may be used as a reactant or a catalyst in certain chemical synthesis procedures.
