Question

Precipitation calculations with Ni2+ and Pb2+

Answer 1

Precipitation calculations with Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺ a. Use the solubility product for Ni(OH)₂ (s) . the pH at which Ni(OH)₂ begins to precipitate from a 0.18 M Ni²⁺ solution. (Ksp Ni(OH)₂ = 5.5x10⁻¹⁶) is 6.8.

When Ni(OH)₂ starts precipitate :

Ksp of Ni(OH)₂ = [ Ni²⁺ ] [ OH²⁻ ]

5.5x10⁻¹⁶ = [ 0.18 ] [ OH²⁻ ]

[ OH²⁻ ] = 5.5x10⁻¹⁶ / 0.18

[ OH⁻ ] = 5.5 × 10⁻⁸ M

pOH = 7.2

therefore , pH = 14 - 7.2

                  pH = 6.8

Thus, Precipitation calculations with Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺ a. Use the solubility product for Ni(OH)₂ (s) . the pH at which Ni(OH)₂ begins to precipitate from a 0.18 M Ni²⁺ solution. (Ksp Ni(OH)₂ = 5.5x10⁻¹⁶) is 6.8.
