How do forensic scientists determine the time of death? There are timely pieces of evidence that help scientists with this task.

At the time of death:
~The heart stops

~The skin gets tight and grey in color

~Cell start to die (brain 3-7 min; skin up 24 hours)

~The muscles relax

~The bladder and bowels empty

And then what? Order these changes from FIRST to LAST.

I have done some research as well as asking some friends. This is what I came up with. Not sure if it is 100% correct.

step = time after death

1. Livor Mortis = 20-30 minutes

2. Eyes film (cloud) = 2 hours

3. Rigor Mortis begins = 4-6 hours

4. Empty small intestines = 12 hours

5. Bloating = 3-5 days

6. Decay

The question is incomplete, complete question is;

A solution of $Na_2CO_3$ is added dropwise to a solution that contains $1.15\times 10^{-2} M$ of $Fe^{2+}$ and $0.58\times 10^{-2} M$ and $Cd^{2+}$ .

What concentration of $CO_3^{2-}$ is need to initiate precipitation? Neglect any volume changes during the addition.

$K_{sp}$ value $FeCO_3: 2.10\times 10^{-11}$

$K_{sp}$ value $CdCO_3: 1.80\times 10^{-14}$

What concentration of $CO_3^{2-}$ is need to initiate precipitation of the first ion.

Answer:

Cadmium carbonate will precipitate out first.

Concentration of $CO_3^{2-}$ is need to initiate precipitation of the cadmium (II) ion is $3.103\times 10^{-12} M$ .

Explanation:

1) $FeCO_3\rightleftharpoons Fe^{2+}+CO_3^{2-}$

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

$K_{sp}=[Fe^{2+}][CO_3^{2-}]$

$2.10\times 10^{-11}=0.58\times 10^{-2} M\times [CO_3^{2-}]$

$[CO_3^{2-}]=\frac{2.10\times 10^{-11}}{1.15\times 10^{-2} M}$

$[CO_3^{2-}]=1.826\times 10^{-9}M$

2) $CdCO_3\rightleftharpoons Cd^{2+}+CO_3^{2-}$

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

$K_{sp}=[Cd^{2+}][CO_3^{2-}]$

$1.80\times 10^{-14}=0.58\times 10^{-2} M\times [CO_3^{2-}]$

$[CO_3^{2-}]=\frac{1.80\times 10^{-14}}{0.58\times 10^{-2} M}$

$[CO_3^{2-}]=3.103\times 10^{-12} M$

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 $3.103\times 10^{-12} M$ concentration.
