Answer:
![[Pb^{2+}]=3.9 \times 10^{-2}M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BPb%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%3D3.9%20%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-2%7DM)
this is the concentration required to initiate precipitation
Explanation:
⇄
Precipitation starts when ionic product is greater than solubility product.
Ip>Ksp
Precipitation starts only when solution is supersaturated because solution become supersaturated then it does not stay in this form and precipitation starts itself only solution become saturated.
This usually happens when two solutions containing separate sources of cation and anion are mixed together and here also we are mixing lead (||)nitrate solution(source of lead(||)) into the Cl- solution.
![Ip=[Pb^{2}][2Cl^-]^2=Ksp](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Ip%3D%5BPb%5E%7B2%7D%5D%5B2Cl%5E-%5D%5E2%3DKsp)

lets solubility=S
![[Pb^{2+}] = S](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BPb%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%20%3D%20S)
![[Cl^-]=2S](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCl%5E-%5D%3D2S)
![Ksp=[Pb^{2+}]\times [Cl^-]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Ksp%3D%5BPb%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%5Ctimes%20%5BCl%5E-%5D%5E2)


![S=\sqrt[3]{\frac{Ksp}{4} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7BKsp%7D%7B4%7D%20%7D)

this is the concentration required to initiate precipitation
Answer is: because alkaline metals (group IA metals) are the strongest reducing agents and most reactive metals.
Reducing agent<span> is an element or compound that loses an </span>electron<span> to another </span>chemical species<span> in a </span>redox <span>chemical reaction and they have been oxidized.
Alkaline metals tend to lose only one electron in redox reaction.</span>
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
Answer:
A C and D hope this helps
Explanation:

The reaction creates dihydrogen, hence if it's uncontrolled it could lead to potentially dangerous amounts of gas being released at once.
