A solution may contain Ag+, Pb2+, and/or Hg22+. A white precipitate forms when 6 M HCl is added. The precipitate is partially so
omeli [17]

Answer:

All three are present

Explanation:

Addition of 6 M HCl would form precipitates of all the three cations, since the chlorides of these cations are insoluble: AgCl (s), PbCl_2 (s), Hg_2Cl_2 (s).

  • Firstly, the solid produced is partially soluble in hot water. Remember that out of all the three solids, lead(II) choride is the most soluble. It would easily completely dissolve in hot water. This is how we separate it from the remaining precipitate. Therefore, we know that we have lead(II) cations present, as the two remaining chlorides are insoluble even at high temperatures.
  • Secondly, addition of liquid ammonia would form a precipitate with silver: AgCl (s) + 2 NH_3 (aq) + H_2O (l)\rightarrow [Ag(NH_3)_2]OH (s) + HCl (aq); Silver hydroxide at higher temperatures decomposes into black silver oxide: 2 [Ag(NH_3)_2]OH (s)\rightarrow Ag_2O (s) + H_2O (l) + 4 NH_3 (g).
  • Thirdly, we also know we have Hg_2^{2+} in the mixture, since addition of potassium chromate produces a yellow precipitate: Hg_2^{2+} (aq) + CrO_4^{2-} (aq)\rightarrow Hg_2CrO_4 (s). The latter precipitate is yellow.

Why are hydrogen bonds important for the properties of water?
zavuch27 [327]
Water has the special type of attraction called Hydrogen bonding.  The bonds between the Hydrogen and the Oxygen in each water molecule make a super dipole because the Oxygen atom is way more electronegative than the hydrogen atom.  These OH bonds can then be attracted to other H2O molecules.  If you have ever poured water up to the brim and there is  little bit of water that is poking above the top, hydrogen bonding keeps those water molecules from spilling

What type of molecule is the compound shown in the diagram? *diagram included*
koban [17]
Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates. Although glucose and fructose have the same molecular formula they have different structures. They cannot be further hydrolyzed to simple sugars. Disaccharides contains two monosaccharides. For example, lactose and sucrose. Polysaccharides on the other hand contains a large number of saccharides. An example is starch, glycogen and dextrans. Amino acids contains an amino acid, carboxyl group and an R-group. Whatever the diagram you have, you just look at the structures contained.
