Each pair of ions below is found together in aqueous solution. Using the table of solubility product constants in Appendix J, devise a way to separate these ions by adding a reagent to precipitate one of the ions as an insoluble salt and leave the other in solution. (a) Cu2+ and Ag+ (b) A13+ and Fe3+

According to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), waste material is classified as toxic and must be handled as hazardous if the lead concentration exceeds 5 mg/L. By adding chloride ion, the lead ion will precipitate as PbCl2, which can be separated from the liquid portion. Once the lead has been removed, the rest of the waste can be sent to a conventional waste treatment facility. How many grams of sodium chloride must be added to 500 L of a waste solution to reduce the concentration of the Pb2+ ion from 10 to 5 mg/L?

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?

What mass of solid aluminum hydroxide can be produced when 50.0 mL of 0.200 M Al(NO3)3 is added to 200.0 mL of 0.100 M KOH?

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?

You have a solution that contains AgNO3, Pb(NO3)2, and Cu(NO3)2. Devise a separation method that results in having Ag+ in one test tube, Pb2+ in another, and Cu2+ in a third test tube. Use solubility guidelines and Ksp and Kf values.

Calculate the solubility in grams per 100 mL of BaF2 in a 0.10 M BaCl2 solution.

Which of the following is more likely to precipitate the hydroxide ion? Cu(OH)2(s) *=» Ctr+(aq) + 2 OH’(aq) K = 1.6 X IO-19 Ca(OH)2(s) *=» Ca2+(aq) + 2 OH’(aq) K = 7.9 X 10"6

A solution contains 0.018 mole each of I, Br, and Cl. When the solution is mixed with 200. mL of 0.24 M AgNO3, what mass of AgCl(s) precipitates out, and what is [Ag+]? Assume no volume change. AgI:Ksp=1.51016AgBr:Ksp=5.01013AgCl:Ksp=1.61010
