When 2 solutions are mixed When 2 solutions are mixed and an insoluble substance and an insoluble substance formsforms
PrecipitatePrecipitate- this insoluble - this insoluble substancesubstance
To figure out what the solid is, To figure out what the solid is, we need to know what we need to know what individual species are present individual species are present in the solution after the mixture in the solution after the mixture occursoccurs
ExampleExample
1.1. Write the reactants as they exist in solution.Write the reactants as they exist in solution.
KK22CrOCrO44 (aq) + Ba(NO (aq) + Ba(NO33))22(aq) (aq)
2K2K++(aq) + CrO(aq) + CrO442-2- (aq) + Ba (aq) + Ba2+2+(aq) + 2NO(aq) + 2NO33
--(aq) (aq)
We add potassium chromate and barium nitrate together and a yellow solid forms. What is it?
ExampleExample
2.2. Find the possibilities for the Find the possibilities for the solid.solid.
Since KSince K22CrOCrO44 and Ba(NO and Ba(NO33))22 are are
the beginning solutions, they the beginning solutions, they cannot be the yellow solid. cannot be the yellow solid.
The only other options are:The only other options are:
KNOKNO33 OR OR BaCrOBaCrO44
ExampleExample
3.3. Look at the solubility rules to Look at the solubility rules to
figure out if either of these are figure out if either of these are
soluble.soluble.
Since KNOSince KNO33 is soluble, the solid must be: BaCrO is soluble, the solid must be: BaCrO44
So equation must be:So equation must be:
KK22CrOCrO44 (aq) + Ba(NO (aq) + Ba(NO33))22(aq) (aq)
KNOKNO33(aq) + BaCrO(aq) + BaCrO44(s)(s)
