Question

bai₂ since the precipitate is ba₃(po₄)₂, write the molecular equation for the precipitation reaction. if no reaction occurs, write nr after the reaction arrow. be sure to include the proper phases for all species within the reaction.

Answer 1

The equation of the precipitation reaction is given below:

• BaI₂ (aq) + Na₃PO₄ (aq) ---> Ba₃(PO₄)₂ (s) + 3 NaI (aq)

What are precipitation reactions?

Precipitation reactions are reactions in which two solutions are mixed together to give a product that is insoluble in an aqueous medium known as a precipitate.

The precipitate obtained can be removed from the mixture through filtration using filter paper.

Precipitation reactions can either be a single displacement or double displacement reaction.

The equation of the reaction of the formation of the precipitate is Ba₃(PO₄)₂ is given below:

Barium iodide, BaI₂ reacts with sodium tetraoxophosphate (v), Na₃PO₄.

BaI₂ (aq) + Na₃PO₄ (aq) ---> Ba₃(PO₄)₂ (s) + 3 NaI (aq)

Therefore, the formation of  a white precipitate shows that barium tetraoxophosphate (v) Ba₃(PO₄)₂ is insoluble in water.
