The experiments were performed with the molar ratio of salts NH4NO3:NaVO3 1.5:1 at temperatures 293, 303, 313 and 323 K. Based on the obtained results, the optimal time of the process was determined as 5 h at 293–303K. Under these conditions, the achieved yield of the precipitation process was ~98.7%, while the contents of the vana- dium salts in the post – fi ltration solution was ~0.02%. Keywords: SCS method, double exchange, ammonium nitrate and ammonium metavanadate.

    Mystery Substance Identification The Identification of Unlabeled Laboratory Chemicals Found on School Premises Perhaps the most commonly posed question we encounter is, “I have a container of chemical on my shelf.

No, it is not our intent to identify the material for use. It is our intent to classify the material for disposal. It is likely that your mystery substance was inherited. In order to avoid leaving someone else such a legacy we urge you to be rigorous in your labeling activities. If you wish to postpone the identification process, then assume the chemical is severely hazardous and treat it accordingly. This suggests that you would want to protect the container from fire, being dropped, etc. Turn to the index of your Flinn Scientific Catalog/Reference Manual.
