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.

- 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?arrow_forwardThe solubility rules outlined in Chapter 4 say that Ba(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, and Ca(OH)2 are marginally soluble hydroxides. Calculate the pH of a saturated solution of each of these marginally soluble hydroxides.arrow_forwardWhat 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?arrow_forward
- Predict the precipitate produced by mixing Al(NO3)3 solution with a NaOH solution. Write the net ionic equation for the reaction.arrow_forwardA chemist needs to determine the concentration of a solution of nitric acid, HNO3. She puts 905 mL of the acid in a flask along with a few drops of indicator. She then slowly adds 0.200 mol L Ba(OH)2 to the flask until the solution turns pink, indicating the equivalence point of the titration. She notes that 225 mL of Ba(OH)2 was needed to reach the equivalence point. Solution map In this titration, the concentration of base is known and can be used to calculate the unknown acid concentration: concentration of base → moles of base → moles of acid → concentration of acid Part A How many moles of Ba(OH)2 are present in 225 mL of 0.200 mol L-1 Ba(OH)2?
