A solution contains 0.036 M Cu2+ and 0.044 M Fe2+. A solution containing sulfide ions is added to selectively precipitate one of

the metal ions from solution. At what concentration of sulfide ion will a precipitate begin to form? What is the identity of the precipitate? Ksp (CuS) = 1.3 × 10-36, Ksp (FeS) = 6.3 × 10-18.

Answer:

The precipitate is CuS.

Sulfide will precipitate at  [S2-]= 3.61*10^-35 M

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

The solution contains 0.036 M Cu2+ and 0.044 M Fe2+

Ksp (CuS) = 1.3 × 10-36

Ksp (FeS) = 6.3 × 10-18

Step 2:  Calculate precipitate

CuS → Cu^2+ + S^2-         Ksp= 1.3*10^-36

FeS → Fe^2+ + S^2-      Ksp= 6.3*10^-18

Calculate the minimum of amount needed to form precipitates:

Q=Ksp

<u>For copper</u>  we have:  Ksp=[Cu2+]*[S2-]

Ksp (CuS) = 1.3*10^-36 = 0.036M *[S2-]

[S2-]= 3.61*10^-35 M

<u>For Iron</u>  we have: Ksp=[Fe2+]*[S2-]

Ksp(FeS) = 6.3*10^-18 = 0.044M*[S2-]

[S2-]= 1.43*10^-16 M

CuS will form precipitates before FeS., because only 3.61*10^-35 M Sulfur Ions are needed for CuS. For FeS we need 1.43*10^-16 M Sulfur Ions which is much larger.

The precipitate is CuS.

Sulfide will precipitate at  [S2-]= 3.61*10^-35 M

Many grams of aluminum are required to produce 3.5 moles Al2O3 in the presence of excess O2?
Aleks [24]
The  grams  of aluminum  that are required   to produce  3.5  moles of AlO3  in  presence of excess O2   is calculated as  below

write  the  equation for reaction
4 Al + 3O2 =2 Al2O3

by use of mole  ratio between  Al  to  Al2O3   which  is  4 :2  the moles of  Al 
=3.5 x4/2 = 7  moles

mass of Al  =  moles /   x molar mass

= 7 moles  x27 g/mol  =189  grams
