Concept explainers
A solution containing a mixture of metal cations was treated with dilute HCl and no precipitate formed. Next, H2S was bubbled through the acidic solution. A precipitate formed and was filtered off. Then, the pH was raised to about 8 and H2S was again bubbled through the solution. A precipitate again formed and was filtered off. Finally, the solution was treated with a sodium carbonate solution, which resulted in no precipitation.
Classify the metal ions based on whether they were definitely present, definitely absent, or whether it is possible they were present in the original mixture.

- 10.00 mL of 0.200 M formic acid is titrated with 0.100 M sodium hydroxide. Write a balanced equation for the reaction of the acid and base indicated. Determine the volume of titrant added at the equivalence point. SHOW ALL WORK! Determine the pH of the solution at the equivalence point (HINT: Consider the products of the reaction. One of the products should be a salt having an ion which will undergo hydrolysis.Determine the concentration of this ion, and write an equation showing the reaction of the ion with water. Then, use an inital, change, final chart in order to work the problem.

He titrated until the pink color persisted for 30 sec and recorded the volume of titrant required. Preparing for the second determination, he set the reaction solution aside and added some more NaOH to the buret. He was about to pour the reaction solution down the drain, so he could rinse and reuse the flask, when he saw that the pink color had disappeared! a) What happened? b) What can the student do to correct for this erTor and salvage this trial? How should the data sheet be modified to reflect this correction? 3. Another student began adding titrant to the acid solution, but stopped when she suddenly realized that she forgot to add the 3 drops of phenolphthalein. When she did, the solution immediately turned dark red! a) What happened? b) What can the student do to correct for this error and salvage this trial? How should the data sheet…arrow_forward

- For each scenario below, select the color of the solution using the indicator thymol blue during the titration. When you first add indicator to your Na₂CO3 solution, the solution is basic (pH ~10), and the color is [Select] At the equivalence point for the titration, the moles of added HCI are equal to the moles of Na₂CO3. One drop (or less!) past this is called the endpoint. The added HCI begins to titrate the thymol blue indicator itself. At the endpoint, the indicator color is [Select] When you weren't paying attention and added too much HCI (~12 mL extra), the color is [Select] When you really weren't paying attention and reached the second equivalence point of Na₂CO3, the color is [Select ]arrow_forwardA 30.00 mL of 0.125 M CH3COOH solution is titrated with a standard 0.250 M NaOH solution.
