I identified an unknown sample using various methods and by known basic data about its synthesis (starting compounds, solvent). To identify an unknown sample, I used infrared spectroscopy, electronic spectroscopy, CHN analysis, X-ray powder analysis, gravimetric analysis, titration and magnetic measurements.
After identification of the sample – determination of the formula, I prepared compound by the already known synthetic pathway and characterized the prepared sample with the same methods as the unknown.
I compared the obtained results of analyzes of both samples (unknown and prepared).
The comparison of results confirmed that the unknown sample is (K4[Cu2(C2O4)4(H2O)2])n.2n(H2O).
