Answer:

The solutions should be added in this order NaCl > Na2SO4 > Na2S

Explanation:

Silver is insoluble as a chloride, so the silver ions get precipitated on addition of chloride ion as silver chloride.  This means Ag+ would be removed the first.

So we will add NaCl in the first step.

The following reaction will occur.

Ag+ + Cl- → AgCl(s)

Both, Pb2 and Ni are soluble as chlorides. (lead chloride is soluble as a hot solution but will ppt when colder).

When we add Na2SO4, Pb2+ will get precipitated (because it's insoluble) as PbSO4 and Ni will remain soluble as NiSO4 is soluble in water.

The reaction that will occur is:

Pb^2+ + SO4^2- → PbSO4(s)

Nickel is insoluble as a sulfide. So when we will add Na2S, nickel will be precipitated as sulfide and be able to separate and be collected.

The solutions should be added in this order NaCl > Na2SO4 > Na2S

Organisms, or living things are made of tiny particles that can join together and make larger structures.
zzz [600]
Living things are highly organized and structured, following a hierarchy of scale from small to large. The atom is the smallest and most fundamental unit of matter. It consists of a nucleus surrounded by electrons. Atoms combine to form molecules, which are chemical structures consisting of at least two atoms held together by a chemical bond. In plants, animals, and many other types of organisms, molecules come together in specific ways to create structures called organelles. Organelles are small structures that exist within cells and perform specialized functions. As discussed in more detail below, all living things are made of one or more cells.

Nitric acid can be produced by the reaction of gaseous nitrogen dioxide with water. 3 no2(g + h2o(? ?? 2 hno3(? + no(g if 538 l
Phantasy [73]
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>3NO2 + H2O = 2HNO3 + NO

Assuming that the gases in this reaction are ideal gas, then we can use the conversion from L to moles which is 1 mol of ideal gas is equal to 22.4 L. We calculate as follows:

538 L NO2 ( 1 mol / 22.4L ) ( 1 mol NO / 3 mol NO2 ) ( 22.4 L / 1 mol ) = 179.33 L NO is produced</span>
