Concept introduction:
Precipitation reaction are the reactions in which an insoluble compound is produced when solution of two ionic compounds are mixed. The insoluble compound formed settles down at the bottom and is known as precipitate.
Answer to Problem 30E
The net ionic reaction for the precipitation reaction between
Explanation of Solution
In the precipitation reactions, combination of ions and formation of insoluble products takes place. Therefore, if some ions are mixed together and their combination can lead to the formation of insoluble ionic compounds, then it is said that precipitation reaction has occurred and the product thus formed is known as precipitate.
The precipitation reaction for the reaction
The reaction that occurs is shown below.
Balance cobalt on both sides of the equation.
Balance phosphate on both sides of the equation.
Balance potassium on both sides of the equation.
The net balanced chemical reaction is shown below.
The ionic equation for the above reaction is as follows.
The common ions on both sides cancel out.

- Consider the following generic equation: H+(aq)+ B(aq)HB(aq)For which of the following pairs would this be the correct prototype equation for the acid-base reaction in solution? If it is not correct, write the proper equation for the acid-base reaction between the pair. (a) nitric acid and calcium hydroxide (b) hydrochloric acid and CH3NH2 (c) hydrobromic acid and aqueous ammonia (d) perchloric acid and barium hydroxide (e) sodium hydroxide and nitrous acidarrow_forwardComplete and balance each of the following molecular equations, including phase labels, if a reaction occurs. Then write the net ionic equation. If no reaction occurs, write NR after the arrow. a Sr(OH)2 + HC2H3O2 b NH4I + CsCl c NaNO3 + CsCl d NH4I + AgNO3arrow_forwardWithout first writing a full molecular or ionic equation, write the net ionic equations for any precipitation reactions that occur when aqueous solutions of the following compounds are mixed. If no reaction occurs, so indicate. l type='a'> iron(III) nitrate and sodium carbonate mercurous nitrate and sodium chloride sodium nitrate and ruthenium nitrate copper(II) sulfate and sodium sulfide lithium chloride and Iead(II) nitrate calcium nitrate and lithium carbonate gold(III) chloride and sodium hydroxidearrow_forward
- Balance equations for these reactions that occur in aqueous solution, and then classify each as a precipitation, add-base, or gas-forming reaction. Show states for the products (s, , g, aq), give their names, and write the net ionic equation.

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_forwardBalance each of the following equations, and then write the net ionic equation. Show states for all reactants and products (s, . g, aq).

- The 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?
