Answer:
the ion present in the original solution is Ca2+
Explanation:
Precipitation reactions occur when cations and anions in aqueous solution combine to form an insoluble ionic solid called a precipitate.
Step1 : If we add Nacl to the solution, there is no precipitate formed
⇒The only possible ion that can form a precipate with Cl- is Ag+; since there is no precipitate formed, Ag+ is not present
Step2 : If we add Na2SO4 to the solution, a white precipitate is formed
The possible ions to bind at SO42- are Ca2+ and Fe2+
But the white precipitate formed, points in the direction of Ca2+
⇒This means calcium is present
Step3 : If we add Na2CO3 to the filtered solution, there is a precipate formed
Ca2+ will bind also with CO32- and form a precipitate
So the ion present in the original solution is Ca2+
Answer:
Ca2+ and Fe2+
Explanation:
When a solution is added to the original one, a single replacement reaction will occur. So, the cation will be substituted for the cation presented in the solution. If the new compound is soluble, it will dissociate, if not, it will precipitate.
First, sodium chloride is added, so, the sodium cation will be substituted. The possibilities of new formations are AgCl, CaCl2, and FeCl2. Both CaCl2 and FeCl2 are solubles, but AgCl is insoluble, thus, if it was present, it would form a precipitate, so Ag+ is not present.
When sodium sulfate is added, a precipitate is formed. The sodium can be replaced, forming CaSO4 or FeSO4. CaSO4 is insoluble, so it forms a precipitate, which may be the solid formed. FeSO4 is soluble.
Then, sodium carbonate is added and can form FeCO3, which is insoluble and can be the solid formed. So, possible ions are Ca2+ and Fe2+.
