A solution of Na2CO3 is added dropwise to a solution that contains 1.00×10-2 M Fe2+ and 1.49×10-2 M Cd2+. What concentration of CO32- is need to initiate precipitation? Neglect any volume changes during the addition.

 

Ksp value: FeCO3: 2.10*10-11

Ksp value: CdCO3: 1.80*10-14

 

Which cation precipitates first?

What is the concentration of CO32- when the second cation begins to precipitate?

Answer #1

CdCO3(s) <=> Cd2+(aq) + CO32-(aq)

Ksp = [Cd2+][CO32-] = 1.80 x 10-14

[Cd2+] = 1.49 × 10-2 M

1.49 × 10-2 x [CO32-] = 1.80 x 10-14

[CO32-] = 1.21 x 10-12 M

FeCO3(s) <=> Fe2+(aq) + CO32-(aq)

Ksp = [Fe2+][CO32-] = 2.10 x 10-11

[Fe2+] = 1.00 × 10-2 M

1.00 × 10-2 x [CO32-] = 2.10 x 10-11

[CO32-] = 2.10 x 10-9 M

Precipitation occurs when ionic product Qsp >= Ksp

Thus [CO32-] = 1.21 x 10-12 M is needed to initiate precipitation and Cd2+ precipitates out first.

When second cation Fe2+ starts to precipitate, [CO32-] = 2.10 x 10-9 M.
