Question
Separate samples of a solution of an unknown salt are treated with dilute solutions of HBr, H2SO4, and NaOH. A precipitate forms in all three cases. Which of the following cations could be present in the unknown salt solution: K+, Pb2+, Ba 2+?
Solution
The first step in solving 4 problem number 27 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Separate samples of a solution of an unknown salt are treated with dilute solutions of HBr, H2SO4, and NaOH. A precipitate forms in all three cases. Which of the following cations could be present in the unknown salt solution: K+, Pb2+, Ba 2+?
From the textbook chapter Reactions in Aqueous Solution you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
