Question

Suppose that you plan to make 10 grams of MgCO₃ by reacting MgSO4 with Na₂CO₃ [Figure 10]. However, Na₂CO₃ is unavailable and you need to replace it with K₂CO₃. Which statement is correct? *

A - It can be predicted form the periodic table that the yield of MgCO₃ will be more when using K₂CO₃ because potassium is more reactive than sodium.

B - It can be predicted form the periodic table that the precipitate of MgCO₃ will form faster because potassium is more reactive than sodium.

C - None of these statements is correct.

D - Both these statements are correct.
