Consider the following mixtures of chemicals. Complete the table by writing balanced equations and calculating the value of Q. Hence indicate whethe precipitation will occur. 

Mixture Balanced equation Ksp Q Precipitation occurs (yes or no)
100mL 0.5 molL-1 Ca(NO3)2 mixed with 100 mL 0.2 molL-1 Na2SO4   6.1x10-5    
20 mL 0.01 molL-1 AgNOmixed with 80 mL 0.05 molL-1 K2CrO4   1.7x10-12    
Expert Solution
Step 1

The equation will be:

Ca(NO)2tNaSo->CSo,12NaNO,
Step 2

0.5M Calcium nitrate is mixed with 0.2M sodium sulfate.

The expression of solubility product is:

K CaSo6.1x10
Step 3

Total volume = 200 millilitre.

Step 4

Therefore Q = 2.5×10-2

Q is greater than Ksp, precipitation will happens.

The equation will be:
