Chapter 16, Problem 5RC(choose chapter or problem)
\(\mathrm{AgNO_3}\) is slowly added to a solution that contains 0.1 M each of \(\mathrm{Br^-}\), \(\mathrm{CO^{2-}_3}\) and ions. Which compound will precipitate first and which compound will precipitate last? (Use the \(K_\mathrm{sp}\) of each compound to calculate \(\mathrm{[Ag^+]}\) needed to produce a saturated solution.)
