- When 5 M ammonia is added to a solution containing Cu(OH)2(s), the precipitate will eventually dissolve in solution. Why? If 5 M HNO3 is then added, the Cu(OH)2 precipitate re-forms. Why? In general, what effect does the ability of a cation to form a complex ion have on the solubility of salts containing that cation?arrow_forwardSufficient sodium cyanide, NaCN, was added to 0.015 M silver nitrate, AgNO3, to give a solution that was initially 0.108 M in cyanide ion, CN. What is the concentration of silver ion, Ag+, in this solution after Ag(CN)2 forms? The formation constant Kf for the complex ion Ag(CN)2 is 5.6 1018.arrow_forwardMany natural processes can be studied in the laboratory but only in an environment of controlled pH. Which of these combinations is the best to buffer the pH at approximately 7? Explain your choice. H3PO4/NaH2PO4 NaH2PO4/Na2HPO4 Na2HPO4/Na3PO4arrow_forward
- A 1.0-L solution that is 4.2 M in ammonia is mixed with 26.7 g of ammonium chloride. a What is the hydroxide-ion concentration of this solution? b 0.075 mol of MgCl2 is added to the above solution. Assume that there is no volume change. After Mg(OH)2 has precipitated, what is the molar concentration of magnesium ion? What percent of the Mg2+ is removed from solution?arrow_forwardHow do the concentrations of Ag+ and CrO42- in a saturated solution above 1.0 g of solid Ag2CrO4 Change when 100 g of solid Ag2CrO4 is added to the system? Explain.arrow_forwardThe Ksp for Q, a slightly soluble ionic compound composed of M22+ and X ions, is 4.5 1029. The electron configuration of M+ is [Xe]6s14f145d10. The X anion has 54 electrons. What is the molar solubility of Q in a solution of NaX prepared by dissolving 1.98 g NaX in 150. mL solution?arrow_forward
- Write equations for the stepwise formation of each of the following complex ions. a. CoF63 b. Zn(NH3)42+arrow_forward• A mixture is prepared by combining 3.0 mL of 0.0050 M NaSCN (in 0.10 M HNO3) solution with 4.0 mL of 0.0030 M Fe(NO3)3 solution, and 3.0 mL of 0.10 M HNO3 solution. Based on your average Kf value, determine the equilibrium concentrations of Fe 3+, SCN, and FeSCN2+ in the solution. You cannot apply a small x approximation.arrow_forwardA chemistry graduate student is given 100.mL of a 0.40M trimethylamine ((CH3)3N) solution. Trimethylamine is a weak base with =Kb×7.410−4. What mass of (CH3)3NHCl should the student dissolve in the (CH3)3N solution to turn it into a buffer with pH =10.35? You may assume that the volume of the solution doesn't change when the (CH3)3NHCl is dissolved in it. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and round it to 2 significant digits.arrow_forward
- If 1.70 g of AgNO3 (molar mass = 169.9 g/mol) is dissolved in 150 mL of 0.20 M hydrochloric acid, the complex ion [AgCl2]− (Kf = 1.1 × 105) will form. When the solution reaches equilibrium, what will be the concentrations of Ag+ and AgCl2 −?arrow_forwardA buffer is made using 200.0 mL of 0.100 M (CH3)3N (trimethylamine) and 100.0 mL of 0.200 M (CH3)3NHCl (trimethylammonium chloride). 10.0 mL of 0.200 M NaOH is added to the buffer. What is the solution pH after the NaOH is added?For (CH3)3N K = 6.3 x 10^-5arrow_forwardA buffer is prepared by dissolving 0.80 mol of sodium dihydrogenphosphate, NaH2PO4, and 0.60 mol of sodium hydrogenphosphate, Na2HPO4, in 500.0 mL of water. The Ka for the dihydrogenphosphate ion, H2PO4-, is 6.2 x 10-8 at 25 °C. (note that we know both substances will dissociate in water to give Na+, H2PO4- and HPO42- , the Na+ are spectator ions and the equilibrium reaction occuring in the buffer solution is H2PO4-(aq) + H2O(l) ⇌⇌ HPO42-(aq) + H3O+(aq) ) What is the pH of the buffer produced?arrow_forward
