Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 60E
An unknown solid is entirely soluble in water. On addition of dilute HCl, a precipitate forms. After the precipitate is filtered off, the pH is adjusted to about 1 and H2S is bubbled in; a precipitate again forms. No precipitate forms upon addition of (NH4)2HPO4. The remaining solution shows a yellow color in a flame test (see Figure 7.22). Based on these observations, which are definitely might be present, which are definitely present, and which are definitely absent: CdS, Pb (NO3)2, HgO, ZnSO4, Cd (NO3)2, and Na2SO4?

A sample can contain any ion from groups I to IV. Adding 6M HCl does not produce precipitates.The H + concentrations are adjusted to 0.3M and the solution is saturated with H2S, no precipitate forms.However, when [ H+] is reduced to 10-9M and saturated again with H2S, precipitate appears. Subsequently, it is found that this precipitate is a group III hydroxide.In group IV analysis, a precipitate is formed by adding (NH4) 2CO3. What ions must be present from groups a) I, b) II, c) III d) IV ?
A solution containing several metal ions is treated with diluteHCl; no precipitate forms. The pH is adjusted to about1, and H2S is bubbled through. Again, no precipitate forms.The pH of the solution is then adjusted to about 8. Again,H2S is bubbled through. This time a precipitate forms. Thefiltrate from this solution is treated with (NH4)2HPO4. Noprecipitate forms. Which of these metal cations are eitherpossibly present or definitely absent: Al3 +, Na +, Ag+, Mg2 +?
