Result |
Identification A (USP) |
Mix 0.5 g with 10 mL of 3 N hydrochloric acid, filter, and neutralize the filtrate to litmus paper with 6 N ammonium hydroxide: the neutralized filtrate so obtained responds to the tests for Calcium<191> |

Identification B (USP) |
Prepare a bead by fusing a few crystals of sodium ammonium phosphate on a platinum loop in the flame of a gas burner. Place the hot, transparent bead in contact with the specimen of Calcium Silicate, and again fuse. Silica floats about in the bead, producing, upon cooling, an opaque bead having a web-like structure. |
