A solution of Na2CO3 is added dropwise to a solution that contains 1.15×10−2 M Fe2+ and 0.58×10−2 M Cd2+. What concentration of CO32− is need to initiate precipitation of the first ion? Neglect any volume changes during the addition.

The question is incomplete, complete question is;

A solution of is added dropwise to a solution that contains of and and .

What concentration of is need to initiate precipitation? Neglect any volume changes during the addition.

What concentration of is need to initiate precipitation of the first ion.

Cadmium carbonate will precipitate out first.

Concentration of is need to initiate precipitation of the cadmium (II) ion is .

Explanation:

1)

The expression of an solubility product of iron(II) carbonate :

2)

The expression of an solubility product of cadmium(II) carbonate :

On comparing the concentrations of carbonate ions for both metallic ions, we can see that concentration to precipitate out the cadmium (II) carbonate from the solution is less than concentration to precipitate out the iron (II) carbonate from the solution.

So, cadmium carbonate will precipitate out first.

And the concentration of carbonate ions to start the precipitation of cadmium carbonate we will need concentration of carbonate ions greater than the concentration.

your parents i think this could be it

we need the questions , i may then you.
