Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Equations which represent the given observation that when a mixture of Mg(OH)2(s) and Zn(OH)2(s) is treated with NH3(aq), the Zn(OH)2 dissolves but the Mg(OH)2(s) is left behind should be determined.

Concept introduction:

A complex ion is formed when a metal ion reacts with a Lewis base in solution. This reaction is characterized in terms of chemical equilibrium. A complexion comprises of a ligand and a metal ion as a result of an interaction of Lewis acid-base.

Metal ion which is positively charged functions as a Lewis acid. Lewis base or the ligand has one or more lone pairs of electrons. For example, Cu2+, which is a highly charged and small metal ion having the major tendency to function as Lewis acids, consequently exhibiting the greatest affinity to form complex ions.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Equations which represent the given observation that when NaOH(aq) is added to CuSO4(aq) a pale blue precipitate is formed. After that, when NH3(aq) is added then the precipitate redissolves and produces a solution with an intense deep blue color. If the obtained blue deep blue solution is made acidic with HNO3(aq) the color is converted back to pale blue should be determined.
