I was wondering how one would determine whether a compound isacidic, base , or neutral by looking at its formula. Forexample:

KClO4

FeCl3

H2SO3

How do you determine if it is acidic base or neutral just bylooking at that?

For organic chem lab I am given a mixture of three compounds.The two major components are a neutral compound and EITHER an acidor a base. The third minor component is another neutral compound. Iam trying to figure out how to determine whether I need to extractan acid or base (protonate or deprotonate) and also the best way toseperate the neutral compounds. My neutral compound options areBenzoin, 1,4-dibromobenzene, and fluorene. Benzoin is the only onethat differs greatly in boiling point.

Any advice would be great, thanks

If you are provided with a mixture containing an acidic compound e.g. R-COOH and a BASIC e.g. R-NH2, show using a flowchart how you would successfully separate the mixture to obtain the two pure compounds. (3 Marks)

IT IS NOT A NEUTRAL COMPOUND BEING MIXED WITH AN ACIDIC COMPOUND. IT IS AN ACID AND BASE.
