1. Answer;
Copper (ii) carbonate.
The name of the compound CuCO3 is copper (ii) carbonate.
Step-by-step explanation;
Cu is the chemical symbol for the copper and CO3 is the chemical symbol for the carbonate group and each one of them has valency of two. Therefore, a compound CuCO3 is formed.
2. Answer;
Yes
Ca2+ reacted with Na2S to form CaS and Na+
Step-by-step explanation:
Calcium ions reacts with sodium sulfide to form calcium sulfide and sodium ions.
For example; a salt of calcium, calcium carbonate reacts with sodium sulfide to form sodium carbonate and calcium sulfide.
3. Answer;
NaCl and Ag+ do not form a product
Step-by-step explanation;
The reaction between sodium chloride and silver metal will not take place. This is because silver (Ag) is less reactive than sodium metal and therefore cannot displace sodium from its salt. In other words, silver metal is lower in the reactivity series as compared to sodium metal which indicates sodium metal is more reactive than silver.
4. Answer;
Formation of a white precipitate ; this indicates that silver sulfide is insoluble in water.
Step-by-step explanation;
When an aqueous solution containing Ag+ ions is added to aqueous solution of sodium sulfide (Na2S), there will be formation of white precipitate. Formation of white precipitate indicates that a reaction has taken place to form a water insoluble compound. The water insoluble compound occurs as a precipitate. The white precipitate is silver sulfide (Ag2S)
2 Ag+ (aq) + Na2S(aq) ----- Ag2S (s) + 2 Na+ (aq)
