QUESTION:

With ions shown as spheres and solvent molecules omitted for clarity, the circle (right) illustrates the solid formed when a solution containing \(\mathrm{K}^{+}, \mathrm{Mg} 2^{+}, \mathrm{Ag}^{+} \text {, or } \mathrm{Pb}^{2+}\) (blue) is mixed with one containing \(\mathrm{ClO}_{4}^{*}, \mathrm{NO}_{3}^{*} \text {, or } \mathrm{SO}_{4}{ }^{2-}\) (yellow).

Identify the solid.

Write a balanced net ionic equation for the reaction.

If each sphere represents \(5.0 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~mol}\) of ion, what mass of product forms?

Equation Transcription:

K+, Mg2+, Ag+, or Pb2+

ClO4-, NO3-, or SO42-

5.0 x 10-4 mol

Text Transcription:

K^+, Mg2^+, Ag^+, or Pb2^+

ClO_4^-, NO_3^-, or SO4_^2-

5.0 x 10^-4 mol

ANSWER:

Solution 30P:

Step 1: (a)

Here, we have to identify the solid which is formed.

Given Cations: K+, Mg2+, Ag+, or Pb2+

The anions are :,

The possible products are :

Thus, the K salts of chlorate, nitrate and sulfate are soluble in aqueous medium.

The possible products of Mg2+ are :

Thus, the Mg salts of chlorate, nitrate and sulfate are also soluble in aqueous medium.

The possible products of Ag+ are :

Among all, only is insoluble in water.

Similarly,

The possible products of Pb2+ are :

Among all, only is insoluble in water.

Therefore, the solid products would be either or

But, according to figure, all the ions are precipitates as a product.

Therefore, the solid product is .
