When sodium hydroxide solution is added to magnesium sulfate solution, a white precipitate of magnesium hydroxide is obtained. When sodium hydroxide solution is added to an "unknown" solution, a white precipitate is obtained. To conclude that the unknown solution contains magnesium ion, it must be assumed that (A) NaOH is more soluble than Mg(OH)2 (B) Na2SO4 is soluble in water. (C)Mg(OH) is insoluble in water (D)NaOH forms no white precipitate with any other ion except Mg2+ (E)Zn2+, which forms white Zn(OH)2, is not present in the unknown. could you explain which option you get and why?
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
