One way the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tests for chloride contaminants in water is by titrating a sample of silver nitrate solution. Any chloride anions in solution will combine with the silver cations to produce bright white silver chloride precipitate. Suppose an EPA chemist tests a 250. mL sample of groundwater known to be contaminated with copper(II) chloride, which would react with silver nitrate solution like this: CuCl₂(aq) + 2 AgNO3(aq) → 2 AgCl(s) + Cu(NO3)₂(aq) C The chemist adds 90.0 mM silver nitrate solution to the sample until silver chloride stops forming.

One way in which the useful metal copper is produced is by dissolving the mineral azurite, which contains copper(II) carbonate, in concentrated sulfuric acid. The sulfuric acid reacts with the copper(II) carbonate to produce a blue solution of copper(II) sulfate. Scrap iron is then added to this solution, and pure copper metal precipitates out because of the following chemical reaction: Fe (s) + CuSO4 (aq) → Cu (s) + FeSO4 (aq)Suppose an industrial quality-control chemist analyzes a sample from a copper processing plant in the following way.
