how does the addition of aqueous NH3 to a solution separate and identify Cu2+ and Bi3+ ions? why wouldn't the addition of a strong base, such as KOH, work just as well as the addition of aqueous NH3?
According to the lab manual, "Although Cu2+ ion forms a soluble, bright blue ammonia complex in solutions of aqueous ammonia, Bi3+ ion does not form a stable ammonia complex. Instead, the very insoluble, white bismuth hydroxide, Bi(OH)3, precipitates from this alkaline solution. Use of a base other than NH3 would cause both cations to precipitate as hydroxides, instead of separating them."

How does the addition of aqueous NH3 to a solution separate and identify Cu2+ and Bi3+ ions? Why the addition of a strong base, such as KOH, work just as well as the addition or aqueous NH3?
A solution that may contain Cu2+, Bi3+, Sn4+, or Sb3+ ions is treated with thioacetamide in an acid medium. The black precipitate that forms is partly soluble in strongly basic solution. The precipitate that remains is soluble in 6 M HNO3 and gives only a white precipitate upon the addition of NH4OH. The basic solution, when acidified, produces, an orange precipitate.. which group 2 ions are present? which are absent? and which are still in doubt? How would you remove...
Why wouldnt a weak base, such as NH3, work just as well as KOH in (1)? 2.2 Is the question I have. I figured out 2.1 already. Below is relevant info. Thanks! 2. (1) Describe how adding a solution of KOH to the original sulfide precipitate results in the separa- tion of Sn4+ ion from the other Group W cations. (2) Why wouldn't a weak base, such as aque- ous NH3, work just as well as aqueous KOH in (1)?...
How does a buffer resist change in pH upon addition of a strong acid? The strong acid reacts with the weak base in the buffer to form a weak acid, which produces few H + ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH. The strong acid reacts with the weak acid in the buffer to form a weak base, which produces few H+ ions in solution and therefore only a little change in pH. The strong acid...
In step1, aqueous ammonia is added to a solution of the three ions. The equilibrium for the ammonia is EQ1: NH3(aq + H2O(l) ßà NH4+(aq) Kb=1.8x10-5 The bismuth(III) ion is precipitated out of the solution as Bi(OH)3. The equilibrium involved is related to the one provided below: EQ2: Bi(OH)3(s) ßà Bi3+(aq) +3OH(aq)- Ksp =3.2x10-40 Manipulate EQ 1 and 2 to solve for the net equation, EQ3: EQ3 (net): 3H2O+ Bi3+(aq) +3NH3(aq) ßàBi(OH)-(s) +3NH4+(aq) Write the mass law expression for the...
1.Given a solution in which [Cu2+] = 0.20 mol/L and [NH3] = 1.40 mol/L, what is the equilibrium concentration of free Cu2+? The complex Cu(NH3)42+ has Kf = 5.0 X 1013. The answer to the question is 3.1 X 10 -14 I just need how to do it with the work shown. 2. You titrate a 20.00 mL sample of ammonia (Kb = 1.8 X 10-5) to the equivalence point using 10.00 mL of .20 M HCl solution. What is...
4. Strong bases ionize completely in aqueous solution. Which one is NOT a strong base? NaOH Sr(OH)2 KOH NH3 2. Which species is the strongest acid? H2O H2S H2Se H2Te 1. The pH at the equivalence point of the titration of hydrobromic acid (HBr) solution by sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution is < 2.00 > 11.00 4.00 < pH < 7.00 7.00
what is solution ? (References) Strong acids and strong bases ionize 100% in aqueous solution - HCl is a strong acid. In solution we write it as H(aq) + Cl(aq). - HF is a weak acid. In solution we write it as HF (aq). - KOH is a strong base. In solution we write it as K (aq) + OH(aq). - NH3 is a weak base. In solution we write it as NH3(aq). Exception: Since Ca(OH)2 is only slightly soluble...
