Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 23E
Dilute sodium cyanide solution is slowly dripped into a slowly stirred silver nitrate solution. A white precipitate forms temporarily but dissolves as the addition of sodium cyanide continues. Use chemical equations to explain this observation. Silver cyanide is similar to silver chloride- in its solubility.

Dilute sodium cyanide solution is slowly dripped into a slowly stirred silver nitrate solution. A white precipitate forms temporarily but dissolves as the addition of sodium cyanide continues. Use chemical equations to explain thisobservation. Silver cyanide is similar to silver chloride in its solubility.
Barium fluoride has increased solubility in acidic solution. Why?
After completing a distillation to purify a mixture of sodium chloride and water, you decide to test the water to determine its purity. Upon addition of
silver nitrate (AgNO3), a white solid precipitates out of the solution. Use the solubility table on Page 96 to determine the identity of the precipitate.
