Chapter 5, Problem 5.68CP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The balanced net ionic equation should be written for the given precipitation reaction.

Concept introduction:

In a balanced equation the number of atoms of each element as a reactant is equal to the number of atoms of that element as a product.

Coefficient is a number placed before a formula in a chemical equation.

A balanced equation should be obeying the law of conservation of mass. “Law of conservation of mass” states that, the number of atoms remains constant throughout the reaction, simply it can be stated as follows, “during a chemical reaction atoms are neither been created nor be destroyed”.

A precipitation reaction takes place when two solutions of well soluble substances together form a poorly soluble salt.

Ionic equation is an equation in which ions are explicitly shown.

Spectator ions are the ion that appears unchanged on both sides of a reaction arrow.

Net ionic equation is the chemical equation for a reaction which lists only those species participating in the reaction.

To write the net ionic equation, steps mentioned below must be followed.

  • Write the balanced molecular equation
  • Write the ionic equation showing the strong electrolytes completely dissociated into cations and anions.
  • Cancel the spectator ions on both sides of the ionic equation.
  • Check that charges and number of atoms are balanced in the net ionic equation.

Pepto-Bismol, an antacid and antidiarrheal, contains bismuth subsalicylate, C7H5BiO4. Some users of this product can experience a condition known as “black tongue,” which is caused by the reaction of bismuth(III) ions with traceamounts of S2- in saliva to form a black precipitate. Write the balanced net ionic equation for this precipitation reaction.
Quinine ( C20 H24 N2 O2) is the most important alkaloid derived from cinchona bark. It is used as an antimalarial drug. For quinine, pK, = 5.1 and pK, = 9.7 ( pKp = – log Kp). Only 1 g quinine will dissolve in 1920.0 mL of solution. Calculate the pH of a saturated aqueous solution of quinine. Consider only the reaction | Q+ H2O= QH+ + OH- described by pK, where Q = quinine. pH =
An amino acid mixture consisting of lysine,leucine, and glutamic acid is to be separated by ion-exchangechromatography, using a cation-exchange resin at pH 3.5, with theeluting buffer at the same pH. Which of these amino acids will beeluted from the column first? Will any other treatment be neededto elute one of these amino acids from the column?
