3. I would like to express my deep gratitude to
my mentor/teacher DR. NEERAJ MAM who
was a constant source of encouragement and
valuable advices. This project wouldn’t have
come to a successful completion without his
guidance.
I would also like to thank Principal sir Mr.
A.B. Saxena who was always there at my
beck and call, serving me in every best
possible way. He made sure that all the
requirements of the project were fulfilled.
Finally, I would like to thank my parents
for being there with continuing support
morally and financially.
THANKYOU.
5. To Detect The Presence
Of Different Anions
And Cations In
Different Brands Of
Toothpaste.
6. There’s a wide variety of toothpastes and related
products available today in the market for oral
hygiene. However, for a common man, differentiation
on the basis of quality is really difficult with all the
fancy advertisements and offers.
A toothpaste contains a mildly abrasive substance such
as calcium carbonate and a detergent or soap, some
sweetening agent other than sugar and flavouring oils
to make it pleasant to taste and smell. Some toothpastes
contains fluorides which make the enamel surface of
the tooth more resistant to bacterial activity and act
against micro- organisms as a metabolic poison.
Generally any standard toothpaste contain calcium
carbonate, sodium monofluoro phosphate, sodium
lauryl sulphate, zinc sulphate, alum, some flavouring
oils are also added.
This project basically deals with the detection of
various ions in toothpaste that determine its quality,
and thus, a comparison between the prominent
toothpaste brands.
8. In qualitative analysis, the given compound is analysed for the radicals, that is,
cations and anions that it contains. The common procedure of testing on
unknown salt is to make its solution and then test this solution for the ions
present in it. Then Preliminary tests such as colour, odour, dry heating, flame
test etc. are performed. These tests are common for all samples under salt
analysis. Further, there are separate procedures for detecting cations and
anions.
IDENTIFICATION OF ACID RADICAL (ANION)
After the preliminary tests are over with, to identify the anion, three
indicatory tests are carried out. They can be divided in to three categories
each with separate group reagent. Therefore anion may be identified by
performing the following tests in the order given.
Dilute H2SO4 test Concentrated
H2SO4 test
Independent Group (SO 2-
, PO 3-
)
4 4
After an anion is indicated, confirmatory tests are carried out,
corresponding to the anion.
IDENTIFICATION OF BASIC RADICALS (CATION)
To identify the cations, we have been using the flame test(a preliminary
test) for indication. Whichever cation is indicated, it is confirmed on the
basis of corresponding tests.

essential constituents (anions and cations) of a toothpaste.
