Question

g consider the following pair of aqueous solutions. which pair will result in the formation of a precipitate? give the formula for the precipitate in the blank. write none if no precipitate forms. a) libr and nh4no3 b) kcl and pb(ch3coo)2

Answer 1

kcl and pb(ch3coo)2

The precipitate is PbCl2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us take the options provided one after the other;

In the first case, we have;

LiBr(aq) + NH4NO3(aq) ----> LiNO3(aq) + NH4Br(aq)

You can see that no precipitate is formed here.

In the second case;

2KCl(aq) + Pb(CH3COO)2(aq) ----> PbCl2(s) + 2CH3COOK(aq)

The precipitate here is PbCl2.
