In this experiment, the original unknown sample is composed of nitrate-based salts like Pb(NO3)2, AgNO3, and Hg₂(NO3)2. Which group I cation salts could be used as alternatives in this experiment? The solubility of various salts is outlined in the solubility chart. sulfite salts (SO₂²-) bromide salts (Br¯) perchlorate salts (ClO4¯) acetate salts (C₂H₂O₂¯¯) 2 phosphate salts (PO³-) 4

Use the solubility rules (Table 4.1) to decide which of the following compounds are expected to be soluble and which insoluble. a Mg(C2H3O2)2 b NiS c Cr(NO3)2 d Ca3(PO4)2

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?

A solution contains 0.10 M iodide ion, I, and 0.10 M carbonate ion, CO32. (a) If solid Pb(NO3)2 is slowly added to the solution, which salt will precipitate first, Pbl2 or PbCO3? (b) What will be the concentration of the first ion that precipitates (CO32 or I) when the second, more soluble salt begins to precipitate?

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?

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)

The 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.

The 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?

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?

Draw the flow diagram for a calculation that illustrates how to use a titration to determine the concentration of a solution of HNO3, by reaction with 1.00 g Na2CO3.
