Answer:

Chemical formula of the precipitate is Fe(OH)₃

Explanation:

Fe(NO₃)₃ and K₂CO₃ are strong electrolytes and completely dissociates in water. Carbonate ions is a weak base and combines with water to form hydroxide ions (OH⁻), as follows

CO₃²⁻ +  H₂O <---------------->  HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻

Ferric, Fe (III), combines with these hydroxide ions to form insoluble precipitates. Fe(OH)₃ is only partially soluble i.e., it does not completely dissociate in water. When the solutions of Fe(NO₃)₃ and K₂CO₃ are mixed together, Fe(OH)₃ precipitates out due to the strong electrostatic attraction between Fe (III) and hydroxide ions.
