9.A A process called selective precipitation allows for one ion to be removed from a solution containing other ions, with only the ion of interest being precipitated out of solution. This process is used in the purification of drinking water. The process occurs by selecting an ion and then carefully controlling its concentration in the solution. A solution contains 0.010 mol/L silver ions, Ag¹(aq), and 0.010 mol/L strontium ions, Sr²+ (aq). a. Which ion will precipitate out first when a dilute solution of potassium chromate, K₂CrO₂(aq), is added to the mixture? (Hint: Use Ksp values for the two solids that form to determine the concentrations of chromate ion, CrO, (aq), needed for each solid to form.) b. What percentage of the ion that precipitates first will remain unprecipitated when the second ion starts to precipitate?

Question
A A process called selective precipitation allows
for one ion to be removed from a solution containing
other ions, with only the ion of interest being
precipitated out of solution. This process is used in the
purification of drinking water. The process occurs by
selecting an ion and then carefully controlling its
concentration in the solution.
A solution contains 0.010 mol/L silver ions, Ag+ (aq),
and 0.010 mol/L strontium ions, Sr²+ (aq).
a. Which ion will precipitate out first when a dilute
solution of potassium chromate, K₂CrO₂(aq),
is added to the mixture? (Hint: Use Ksp values
for the two solids that form to determine the
concentrations of chromate ion, CrO₂ (aq), needed
for each solid to form.)
b. What percentage of the ion that precipitates first
will remain unprecipitated when the second ion
starts to precipitate?
