- On the basis of the general solubility rules given in Table 4.1, predict the identity of the precipitate that forms when the following aqueous solutions are mixed. If no precipitate forms, indicate which rules apply.arrow_forwardAn aqueous sample is known to contain either Mg2+ or Ba2+ ions. Treatment of the sample with Na2CO3 produces a precipitate, but treatment with ammonium sulfate does not. Use the solubility rules (see Table 4.1) to determine which cation is present.arrow_forwardOn the basis of the general solubility rules given in Table 6-1, predict which of the following substances are likely to be soluble in water. a. aluminum nitrate b. magnesium chloride c. rubidium sulfate d. nickel(II) hydroxide e. lead(II) sulfide f. magnesium hydroxide g. iron(III) phosphatearrow_forward
- On the basis of the general solubility rules given in Table 6-1, predict which of the following substances are likely to be soluble in water. a. zinc chloride b. lead(II) nitrate c. lead(II) sulfate d. sodium iodide e. cobalt(III) sulfide f. chromium(III) hydroxide g. magnesium carbonate h. ammonium carbonatearrow_forwardThe Behavior of Substances in Water Part 1: a Ammonia, NH3, is a weak electrolyte. It forms ions in solution by reacting with water molecules to form the ammonium ion and hydroxide ion. Write the balanced chemical reaction for this process, including state symbols. b From everyday experience you are probably aware that table sugar (sucrose), C12H22O11, is soluble in water. When sucrose dissolves in water, it doesnt form ions through any reaction with water. It just dissolves without forming ions, so it is a nonelectrolyte. Write the chemical equation for the dissolving of sucrose in water. c Both NH3 and C12H22O11 are soluble molecular compounds, yet they behave differently in aqueous solution. Briefly explain why one is a weak electrolyte and the other is a nonelectrolyte. d Hydrochloric acid, HCl, is a molecular compound that is a strong electrolyte. Write the chemical reaction of HCl with water. e Compare the ammonia reaction with that of hydrochloric acid. Why are both of these substances considered electrolytes? f Explain why HCl is a strong electrolyte and ammonia is a weak electrolyte. g Classify each of the following substances as either ionic or molecular. KCl NH3 CO2 MgBr2 HCl Ca(OH)2 PbS HC2H3O2 h For those compounds above that you classified as ionic, use the solubility rules to determine which are soluble. i The majority of ionic substances are solids at room temperature. Describe what you would observe if you placed a soluble ionic compound and an insoluble ionic compound in separate beakers of water. j Write the chemical equation(s), including state symbols, for what happens when each soluble ionic compound that you identified above is placed in water. Are these substances reacting with water when they are added to water? k How would you classify the soluble ionic compounds: strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte, or nonelectrolyte? Explain your answer. l Sodium chloride, NaCl, is a strong electrolyte, as is hydroiodic acid, HI. Write the chemical equations for what happens when these substances are added to water. m Are NaCl and HI strong electrolytes because they have similar behavior in aqueous solution? If not, describe, using words and equations, the different chemical process that takes place in each case. Part 2: You have two hypothetical molecular compounds, AX and AY. AX is a strong electrolyte and AY is a weak electrolyte. The compounds undergo the following chemical reactions when added to water. AX(aq)+H2O(l)AH2O+(aq)+X(aq)AY(aq)+H2O(l)AH2O+(aq)+Y(aq) a Explain how the relative amounts of AX(aq) and AY(aq) would compare if you had a beaker of water with AX and a beaker of water with AY. b How would the relative amounts of X(aq) and Y(aq) in the two beakers compare? Be sure to explain your answer.arrow_forward42. a. Fill in the following table as if it is a well plate and you are mixing two aqueous compounds at a time to see if a precipitate forms. If a precipitate is expected to form, indicate that by writing the correct formula for the precipitate in the corresponding box in the table. If no precipitate is expected to form, write “NO” in the box. CaCI2 Pb(NO3)2 (NH4)3PO4 Na2CO3 AgNO3 K2SO4 b. How do you prepare 300.0 mL of a 0.250 M CaCl2 solution using an available 2(X) M solution? Support your answer with calculations, but also make sure you describe how to prepare the solution.arrow_forward
- Many plants are poisonous because their stems and leaves contain oxalic acid H2C2O4, or sodium oxalate, Na2C2O4. When ingested, these substances cause swelling of the respiratory tract and suffocation. A standard analysis for determining the amount of oxalate ion, C2O42 in a sample is to precipitate this species as calcium oxalate, which is insoluble in water. Write die net ionic equation for the reaction between sodium oxalate and calcium chloride. CaCl2, in aqueous solution.arrow_forwardSeparate samples of a solution of an unknown soluble ionic compound are treated with KCl, Na2SO4, and NaOH. A precipitate forms only when Na2SO4 is added. Which cations could be present in the unknown soluble ionic compound?arrow_forwardSaccharin (C7H5NO3S) is sometimes dispensed in tablet form. Ten tablets with a total mass of 0.5894 g were dissolved in water. The saccharin was oxidized to convert all the sulfur to sulfate ion, which was precipitated by adding an excess of barium chloride solution. The mass of BaSO4 obtained was 0.5032 g. What is the average mass of saccharin per tablet? What is the average mass percent of saccharin in the tablets?arrow_forward

Give the formula of any precipitate that forms, and write a balanced chemical equation for the precipitation reactions that occur.
