One way to look at it is to determine whether the compound is acidic or basic. basic compounds will dissolve more easily in acid

A) Al(OH)3 is the hydroxide of a metal and this is basic. hence this will dissolve better in acid than pure water ( in fact Al(OH)3 is amphoteric meaning it can dissolve in both acid and base)

B) BaF2 is the salt of a strong base Ba(OH)2 and weak acid HF, hence the nature of BaF2 is slightly basic, this will dissolve better in acidic solution

C) PbCl2 is the salt of weak base Pb(OH)2 and strong acid HCl, hence the nature of PbCl2 is slightly acidic, it won’t be more soluble in acidic solution

D) Hg2Br2 is the salt of weak base Hg2(OH)2 and strong acid HBr. the nature of Hg2Br2 is acidic hence, it wont dissolve better in acidic solution

E) NiS is the salt of a very weak base Ni(OH)2 hence this NiS will be acidic in nature nd wont dissolve in acidic solution

F) AgI is the salt of a very strong acid HI and weak base AgOH. nature will be acidic and wont dissolve in acidic solution



in conclusion only Al(OH)3 and BaF2 are more soluble in acidic solution than in pure water as both are slightly basic

The teacher tells your group to make a stock solution of sodium chloride, and then diluting it to
sergejj [24]

The idea here is that you need to figure out how many moles of magnesium chloride,

MgCl

2

, you need to have in the target solution, then use this value to determine what volume of the stock solution would contain this many moles.

As you know, molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute, which in your case is magnesium chloride, divided by liters of solution.

c

=

n

V

So, how many moles of magnesium chloride must be present in the target solution?

c

=

n

V

⇒

n

=

c

⋅

V

n

=

0.158 M

⋅

250.0

⋅

10

−

3

L

=

0.0395 moles MgCl

2

Now determine what volume of the target solution would contain this many moles of magnesium chloride

c

=

n

V

⇒

V

=

n

c

V

=

0.0395

moles

3.15

moles

L

=

0.01254 L

Rounded to three sig figs and expressed in mililiters, the volume will be

V

=

12.5 mL

So, to prepare your target solution, use a

12.5-mL

sample of the stock solution and add enough water to make the volume of the total solution equal to

250.0 mL

.

This is equivalent to diluting the

12.5-mL

sample of the stock solution by a dilution factor of

20

.
