Specific reagents react only with a single chemical species and are rare. Dimethylglyoxime is a specific reagent that precipitates only Ni+2 from alkaline solutions

Selective reagents react with a limited number of species. and are common .example of a selective reagent is AgNO3 The only common ions that it precipitates from acidic solution are Cl2, Br2, I2, and SCN2.
