Question

Let us assume that Cr(OH)3 (s) is completely insoluble, which signifies that the precipitation reaction with NaOH(aq) (presented in the transition) would go to completion Cr3+ (aq) + 3NaOH(aq) + Cu(OH)3 (s) + 3Na+ (aq) If you had a 0.150 L solution containing 0.0280 M of Cr3' (aq), and you wished to add enough 1.31 M NaOH(aq) to precipitate all of the metal, what is the minimum amount of the NaOH(aq) solution you would need to add? Assume that the NaOH(aq) solution is the only source of OH(aq) for the precipitation Express the volume to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. ​

Answer 1

Formation of an insoluble compound will sometimes occur when a solution containing a particular cation (a positively charged ion) is mixed with another solution containing a particular anion (a negatively charged ion). The solid that separates is called a precipitate.
