Question

1)Write a balanced chemical equation for the following cations, include states as a subscript: Hg2^2+, Ag+, and Cu+ .

 

2. 6 M HCI is added to a solution of Ag*, Cu²+, Fe3•. A white precipitate forms. Predict which ions are present. Make sure you explain and justify your answer.

 

3. What reagent(s) can be used to identify and confirm Ag*, Hgz2", and Pb2+ ions?

 

4. List all the solid precipitates that you encounter during the experiment and their colors.

 

5. What is the precipitating reagent for silver ion in Step 1? Would a solution of NaCl work as well? Why or why not?

Ag', Pb?, Hg22, Cu?, Bi3, Fe3.
