Double Salt
A double salt is a salt that contains two or more different cations or anions.
- Double salts exist in solid state but dissociate into constituent ions on dissolution in water.
- The analysis of double salts can be easily done by determining the ions that are present in the aqueous solution.
- Examples include Potash Alum (K2SO4. Al2(SO4)3.24H2O), Mohr’s Salt((NH4)2Fe(SO4)2.6H2O)

Mohr’s Salt
Mohr’s Salt is named after the German chemist Karl Friedrich Mohr, who synthesized it in 1855. In analytical chemistry, Mohr’s salt is frequently used as a primary standard to standardize solutions of other substances, especially when titrating permanganate solutions. In addition, it finds use as a fertilizer in agriculture and various laboratory applications. In this article, we will discuss the various concepts related to Mohr’s Salt.
