  • just change the substance use but basically that's the method.

  • Not suitable Very reactive metals like potassium,sodium and calcium.
  • Because these metal reacts violently with acid,so the reaction is DANGEROUS!
  • Not suitable for Unreactive metals such as copper and sliver.
  • Because this reaction uses dilute acid, unreactive metal not react with diluted acid.


  • Titration Method
