What is sulphated ash?
The sulphated ash test is an analytical test for determining the inorganic content of a sample by weight. The sample ( usually 1g) is accurately weighed into a platinum, silica crucible that has been previously ignited, cooled and weighed. The sample in the crucible is then subjected to sulphuric acid (usually 1mL) and charred at a low temperature without causing ignition of the sample until there are no more white fumes given off. The crucible with the charred sample is then placed in a furnace (temperature is dependent on monograph but typically it can be from 600 to 900 degrees celcius) until all organic matter has been burnt off. The crucible is cooled and re-weighed. The difference in sample weights being the sulphated ash content remaining. Some monographs require the sample to be re-ashed until a constand weight has been achieved. The remaining inorganic matter is typically metal oxides from most samples.
ash dust smog acid rain noise and auto exhaust are all examples of ________.?

How do you know that the ash is free from carbon?
we can assess the presence or absence of carbon in ash from the colour of the ash:- If ash is greyish to blackish in colour then carbon is present in the ash. If ash is bluish grey to brown in colour then the ash is free of carbon.
Is pumice fly ash?
No. Fly ash is ash left over from burning coal. Pumice is a porous rock produce during some volcanic eruptions.
What is lime and soda ash?
Lime is calcium hydroxide. Soda ash is sodium carbonate.
What is difference between sulphated ash and heavy metal?
Not so important differences: Heavy metal ash (but also in general ash): ash resulting from the calcination of a material; practically is a mixture of oxides. Sulphated ash: the sample is initially treated with sulphuric acid and the residues are calcined.
What is the difference between sulphated ash and residue on ignition?
The only difference between sulphated ash and the residue on ignition is the terminology. The residue on an ignition is sulphated ash.
Why used sulfuric acid in sulphated ash test?
To convert the inorganic metals into metal sulphates very easily.

What is difference between sulphated ash and residue on ignition?
in both the tests the main motto is to determine the inorganic metal contents.
What is the chemistry behind sulphated ash content test?
Sulfated Ash is the ash content of fresh sample being analyzed as determined in the method. Indicates level of metallic (inorganic) contents in the sample. The sample is first chared with concentrated Sulfuric Acid at low temperature in Platinum / Silica crucible and then incinerate the sample in furnace at 600 - 900°C. At this temperature the organic components are fully burnt and only the ash remains, consisting of metal oxides and contaminants. By fuming off the sample with concentrated sulfuric acid the oxides in the ash are transformed into sulfates. The difference in weight serves as measurement. UDAY SALUNKE
Equation Sulphuric acid solid potassium hydroxide?
Potassium hydroxide + sulphuric acid = Potassium sulphate + water
What happens to the amount of the hypochlorous acid in a swimming poolas the pH increases?
When you add acid to a swimming pool it actually decreases the pH level you add soda ash to increase the levels http://sacpoolservices.com
What is acid insoluble ash?
Acid insoluble ash indicates the amount of silica present. Acid insoluble ash is used in toothpastes, cat litter, and an activator in blood clotting studies.
What is the Importance of determining the total ash and acid insoluble ash content of drugs Give their possible composition?
The residue left after incirenation of the crude drug is designated as ash. The residue obtained usually represents the inorganic salts naturally occuring in the drug and adhering to it.it varies with in defininte limits according to the soils, it may also include inorganic matter deliberately added for the purpose of adulteration. Hence, an ash value determination furnishes the basis for judging the identity and cleanliness of any drug and gives information relatives to adulteration/contamination with inorganic matter, thus ash values are helpful in determining the quality and purity of drug. The total ash of crude drug reflects the care taken in its preparation. The acid insoluble ash is a part of the total ash that is insoluble in dilute hydrochloric acid. A higher limit of acid-insoluble ash is imposed, especially in cases where silica may be present or where calcium oxalate content of the drug is higher Procedure given in indian pharmacopeia was used to determine the different ash values such as total ash, acid insoluble ash, and water - soluble ash value.Ash is inorganic residue remaining after the water and inorganic matter have been removed by heating in the presence of oxidizing agents, which provides a measure of the total amounts of minerals within the foodsThe acid insoluble ash (AIA) content is the proportion of a sample that is not hydrolyzed by 72% sulphuric acid and is not subsequently volatilized upon the incirenation of this acid insoluble residue.
What is the importance of determining ash content and acid insoluble ash in food products?
acid insoluble ash indicates the amount of silica present in the given sample
How do I raise pool acidity level?
If the pool is too acidic, pH is low, add soda ash (sodium carbonate). If it is too alkaline, pH is high, add muriatic acid.
