Question

An ion can be removed from an aqueous solution by 1. the formation of a gas that escapes. 2. formation of a precipitate. 3. the formation of what is essentially a nonelectrolyte. 4. all of these

Answer 1

The correct option is ALL OF THESE.
Generally, three processes can lead to the removal of ions from solutions, these include;
1. The formation of an insoluble product, which is called precipitate.
2. The formation of either a non electrolyte or a weak electrolyte and 
3. The formation of a gas product, which escapes from the solution.
