Explanation:

Lead belongs to group 1 cations and barium belongs to the fifth group cations.

If the sample, contains lead then it can be precipitated by using dilute HCl as lead chloride. Barium, if present will not precipitate.

Confirmatory test for lead:

Dissolve the precipitate in hot water and centrifugate and divide the filtrate in 3 parts as lead chloride comes in the solution because it is soluble in hot water.

  • To the filtrate 1, add dilute sulfuric acid. The appearance of white precipitate confirms lead.
  • To the filtrate 2, add 2-3 mL of potassium chromate solution. The appearance of yellow precipitate confirms lead.
  • To the filtrate 3, add 2-3 mL of potassium iodide solution. The appearance of yellow precipitate confirms lead.

If barium is also present, it can be precipitated by using ammonium carbonate and can be confirmed by the addition of sulphurica cid which gives white precipitate and also addition of the potassium chromate solution. The appearance of yellow precipitate confirms barium. Also, barium imparts green color to the flame.

Barium is an element that is primarily used in fireworks because of its distinct green colour while on the other hand, lead is used in electrical industries due to its unique properties. The ions of these elements can simply be identified when its insoluble salts get precipitated by any process.

To measure the amount of nickel in some industrial waste fluid, an analytical chemist adds sodium hydroxide solution to a sample
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The final balanced equation is

Ni2+ + 2NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + 2Na+

Explanation:

It is given that sodium hydroxide is added to collect the solid nickel(II) hydroxide product

The empirical equation for this statement is

Ni2+ + NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + Na+

We will first balance the hydroxide molecule. On the right side there are two OH molecules.

Thus, on the left side we will take 2 sodium hydroxide

Ni2+ + 2NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + Na+

Now we will balance the sodium ion which are 2 in numbers on the left side and 1 on the right side

Ni2+ + 2NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + 2Na+

So, the final balanced equation is

Ni2+ + 2NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + 2Na+

The standard Gibbs free energy of formation of ________ is zero. (
zvonat [6]
The standard Gibbs free energy of formation ΔGf° of Rb(s), H2(g) and Pb(s) are all zero. Similar to enthalpies of formation, the values of the standard Gibbs energies of formation are zero for the elements in their most stable forms at room conditions 298 Kelvin and one atmosphere pressure.
