- Separate samples of a solution of an unknown soluble ionic compound are treated with KCl, Na2SO4, and NaOH. A precipitate forms only when Na2SO4 is added. Which cations could be present in the unknown soluble ionic compound?arrow_forwardA 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_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_forward
- A 25.0-mL sample of vinegar (which contains the weak acid acetic acid, CH3CO2H) requires 28.33 mL of a 0.953 M solution of NaOH for titration to the equivalence point. What is the mass of acetic acid (molar mass = 60.05 g/mol), in grams, in the vinegar sample, and what is the concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar? CH3CO2H(aq) + NaOH(aq) NaCH3CO2(aq) + H2O(l)arrow_forwardThere are many ionic compounds that dissolve in water to a very small extent. One example is lead(II) chloride. When it dissolves an equilibrium is established between the solid salt and its component ions. Suppose you stir some solid PbCl2 into water. Explain how you would prove that the compound dissolves but to a small extent? Is the dissolving process product-favored or reactant-favored? pbcl2(s)pb2+(aq)+2cl(aq)arrow_forwardCopper has compounds with copper(I) ion or copper(II) ion. A compound of copper and chlorine was treated with a solution of silver nitrate, AgNO3, to convert the chloride ion in the compound to a precipitate of AgCl. A 59.40-mg sample of the copper compound gave 86.00 mg AgCl. a Calculate the percentage of chlorine in the copper compound. b Decide whether the formula of the compound is CuCl or CuCl2.arrow_forward
