This document discusses different types of drugs and their sources, manufacturing processes, storage conditions, and decomposition. It also covers limit tests, which are used to identify and quantify impurities. Specific limit tests are described for iron, arsenic, and sodium nitrite. Non-aqueous titrations are discussed as a method to titrate weak acids and bases using solvents like acetic acid. Beer's law and its use in UV-Vis spectrometry to determine analyte concentration is also summarized.

prevent, or diagnose a disease or to promote well-
being

7.  Limit test is defined as semi quantitative test designed to identify
and control small quantities of impurity which is likely to be
present in the substance.
 Limit test is generally carried out to determine the inorganic
impurities present in compound.
 In short, limit test is nothing but to identify the impurities present
in the substance and compare it with standard.
 Importance of Limit tests:
To find out the harmful amount of impurities
To find out the avoidable/unavoidable amount of impurities

9.  The limit test for Iron is based on the reaction between
iron and Thiogycolic acid in ammonical solution to
form pink to deep reddish purple coloured complex of
iron thioglycollate.

11.  The limit test for Arsenic is based on the conversion
of Arsenic to Arsine gas (AsH3) which when passed
over mercuric chloride test paper which produces
yellow stain.
 Step I Arsenic is converted Arsenic acid
 Step II Arsenic acid is reduced by different reducing
agents like potassium iodide, stannous chloride etc.

12.  Step III The nascent hydrogen produced during the
reaction converts arsenious acid to Arsine gas which
reacts with mercuric chloride paper and produces yellow
stain.

20. A demonstration of Beer's Law. A aqueous solution
of rhodamine (a fluorescent dye) is illuminated with a
green laser pointer. Note how far the green light travels
before it is fully absorbed (the length of the yellow-green
line).
The same green laser illuminating
an aqueous rhodamine solution of lower concentration.
Note the laser light is visible to a greater depth than
observed in the photo above, because the less concentrated
solution absorbs the light less efficiently (i.e., the more
dilute solution has lower c).
UV and Visible Spectrometry
Methods
The amount of energy absorbed or transmitted by a
solution is proportional to the
solution's molar absorptivity and the concentration
of solute.
