According to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), waste material is classified as toxic and must be handled as hazardous if the lead concentration exceeds 5 mg/L. By adding chloride ion, the lead ion will precipitate as PbCl2, which can be separated from the liquid portion. Once the lead has been removed, the rest of the waste can be sent to a conventional waste treatment facility. How many grams of sodium chloride must be added to 500 L of a waste solution to reduce the concentration of the Pb2+ ion from 10 to 5 mg/L?
The Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/16Handbook) gives solubilities of the following compounds in grams per 100 mL of water. Because these compounds are only slightly soluble, assume that the volume does not change on dissolution and calculate the solubility product for each. (a) BaSiF6, 0.026 g/100 mL (contains SiF62- ions) (b) Ce(IO3)4, 1.5102 g/100 mL (c) Gd2(SO4)3, 3.98 g/100 mL (d) (NH4)2PtBr6, 0.59 g/100 mL (contains PtBr62- ions)
Calcium carbonate, CaCO3, can be obtained in a very pure state. Standard solutions of calcium ion are usually prepared by dissolving calcium carbonate in acid. What mass of CaCO3 should be taken to prepare 500. mL of 0.0200 M calcium ion solution?
Most barium compounds are very poisonous; however, barium sulfate is often administered internally as an aid in the X-ray examination of the lower intestinal tract (Figure 15.4). This use of BaSO4 is possible because of its low solubility. Calculate the molar solubility of BaSO4 and the mass of barium present in 1.00 L of water saturated with BaSO4.
A sample of hard water contains about 2.0 103 M Ca2+. A soluble fluoride-containing salt such as NaF is added to fluoridate the water (to aid in the prevention of dental cavities). What is the maximum concentration of F that can be present without precipitating CaF2?
What mass of solid aluminum hydroxide can be produced when 50.0 mL of 0.200 M Al(NO3)3 is added to 200.0 mL of 0.100 M KOH?
You will often work with salts of Fe3+, Pb2+, and Al3+ in the laboratory. (All are found in nature, and all are important economically.) If you have a solution containing these three ions, each at a concentration of 0.10 M, what is the order in which their hydroxides precipitate as aqueous NaOH is slowly added to the solution?
What mass of solid AgBr is produced when 100.0 mL of 0.150 M AgNO3 is added to 20.0 mL of 1.00 M NaBr?
Which of the following is more likely to precipitate the hydroxide ion? Cu(OH)2(s) *=» Ctr+(aq) + 2 OH’(aq) K = 1.6 X IO-19 Ca(OH)2(s) *=» Ca2+(aq) + 2 OH’(aq) K = 7.9 X 10"6
68. Aluminum ion may be precipitated from aqueous solution by addition of hydroxide ion, forming Al(OH)3. A large excess of hydroxide ion must not be added, however, because the precipitate of Al(OH)3 will redissolve as a soluble compound containing aluminum ions and hydroxide ions begins to form. How many grains of solid NaOH should be added to 10.0 mL of 0.250 M A1Cl3 to just precipitate all the aluminum?
Consider a 1.50-g mixture of magnesium nitrate and magnesium chloride. After dissolving this mixture in water, 0.500 M silver nitrate is added dropwise until precipitate formation is complete. The mass of the white precipitate formed is 0.641 g. a. Calculate the mass percent of magnesium chloride in the mixture. b. Determine the minimum volume of silver nitrate that must have been added to ensure complete formation of the precipitate.
Solubility and Solubility Product You put 0.10-mol samples of KNO3, (NH4)2S, K2S, MnS, AgCl, and BaSO4 into separate flasks and add 1.0 L of water to each one. Then you stir the solutions for 5 minutes at room temperature. Assume that you have 1.0 L of solution in each case. a Are there any beakers where you would observe solid still present? How do you know? b Can you calculate the potassium ion concentration, K+, for the solutions of KNO3 and K2S? If so, do the calculations, and then compare these K+ concentrations. c For the solutions of (NH4)2S, K2S, and MnS, how do the concentrations of sulfide ion, S2, compare? (You dont need to calculate an answer at this point; just provide a rough comparison.) Be sure to justify your answer. d Are there any cases where you need more information to calculate the sulfide-ion concentration for the solutions of (NH4)2S, K2S, and MnS from part c? If so, what additional information do you need? e Consider all of the solutions listed at the beginning of this problem. For which ones do you need more information than is given in the question to determine the concentrations of the ions present? Where can you find this information? f How is the solubility of an ionic compound related to the concentrations of the ions of the dissolved compound in solution?
