Interpretation:
The abilities of the following solids to dissolve in water:
Concept introduction:
The precipitation reaction refers to those reactions in which the formation of a solid substance takes place from a solution. The resulting solid is known as the precipitate when the reaction occurs in a liquid solution. The precipitant is the chemical that causes the formation of solid.

- Describe in words how you would prepare pure crystalline AgCl and NaNO3 from solid AgNO3 and solid NaCl.arrow_forwardAn experiment in your laboratory requires 500. mL of a 0.0200 M solution of Na2CO3. You are given solid Na2CO3, distilled water, and a 500.-mL volumetric flask. Describe how to prepare the required solution.arrow_forwardWhen solutions of BaCl2 and Na2SO4 are mixed, the mixture becomes cloudy. After a few days, a white solid is observed on the bottom of the beaker with a clear liquid above it. (a) Write a balanced equation for the reaction that occurs. (b) Why is the solution cloudy at first? (c) What happens during the few days of waiting?arrow_forward
- A student is asked to identify the metal nitrate present in an aqueous solution. The cation in the solution can be either Na+, Ba2+, Ag+, or Ni2+. Results of solubility experiments are as follows: unknown + chloride ions—no precipitate unknown + carbonate ions—precipitate unknown + sulfate ions—precipitate What is the cation in the solution?arrow_forwardTwo students titrate different samples of the same solution of HCl using 0.100 M NaOH solution and phenolphthalein indicator (Figure 4.12). The first student pipets 20.0 mL of the HCl solution into a flask, adds 20 mL of distilled water and a few drops of phenolphthalein solution, and titrates until a lasting pink color appears. The second student pipets 20.0 mL of the HCl solution into a flask, adds 60 mL of distilled water and a few drops of phenolphthalein solution, and titrates to the first lasting pink color. Each student correctly calculates the molarity of an HCl solution. What will the second students result be? (a) four times less than the first students result (b) four times greater than the first students result (c) two times less than the first students result (d) two times greater than the first students result (e) the same as the first students resultarrow_forwardWhat is the molar concentration of an H2SO4 solution if a 50.0-mL sample requires 9.65 mL of a 1.33 M solution of NaOH to reach the equivalence point?arrow_forward
- One method for determining the purity of aspirin (C9H8O4) is to hydrolyze it with NaOH solution and then to titrate the remaining NaOH. The reaction of aspirin with NaOH is as follows: A sample of aspirin with a mass of 1.427 g was boiled in 50.00 mL of 0.500 M NaOH. After the solution was cooled, it took 31.92 mL of 0.289 M HCl to titrate the excess NaOH. Calculate the purity of the aspirin. What indicator should be used for this titration? Why?arrow_forwardefine the term strong electrolyte. What types of substances tend to be strong electrolytes? What does a solution of a strong electrolyte contain? Give a way to determine if a substance is a strong electrolyte.arrow_forwardRelative solubilities of salts in liquid ammonia can differsignificantly from those in water. Thus, silver bromide issoluble in ammonia, but barium bromide is not (thereverse of the situation in water). Write a balanced equation for the reaction of anammonia solution of barium nitrate with an ammoniasolution of silver bromide. Silver nitrate is soluble inliquid ammonia. What volume of a 0.50 M solution of silver bromidewill react completely with 0.215 L of a 0.076 M solutionof barium nitrate in ammonia? What mass of barium bromide will precipitate fromthe reaction in part (b)?arrow_forward
- Describe how you would prepare each solution. 1.00 L of 0.125-M Na2CO3 from solid Na2CO3 500. mL of 0.0215-M KMnO4 from solid KMnO4arrow_forwardThe cations Ba2+ and Sr2+ can be precipitated as very insoluble sulfates. (a) If you add sodium sulfate to a solution containing these metal cations, each with a concentration of 0.10 M, which is precipitated first, BaSO4 or SrSO4? (b) What will be the concentration of the first ion that precipitates (Ba2+ or Sr2+) when the second, more soluble salt begins to precipitate?arrow_forwardA 10.00-mL sample of a 24.00% solution of ammonium bromide (NH4Br) requires 23.41 mL of 1.200 molar silver nitrate (AgNO3) to react with all of the bromide ion present. (a) Calculate the molarity of the ammonium bromide solution. (b) Use the molarity of the solution to find the mass of ammonium bromide in 1.000 L of this solution. (c) From the percentage concentration and the answer to part b, find the mass of 1.000 L ammonium bromide solution. (d) Combine the answer to part c with the volume of 1.000 L to express the density of the ammonium bromide solution (in g/mL).arrow_forward
