प्रश्न
How would you separate gold from a mixture of gold and copper filling?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Gold will dissolve only in aqua regia i.e., a mixture of conc. hydrochloric acid and conc. nitric acid in 1:3 but copper will dissolve in nitric acid.
To separate gold from a mixture of gold and platinum add some nitric acid to the mixture, gold will remain undissolved hence can be filtered.
