Question

The concentration of sulphide ion in 0.1M HCl solution saturated with hydrogen sulphide is 1.0 × 10–19 M. If 10 mL of this is added to 5 mL of 0.04 M solution of the following: FeSO4, MnCl2, ZnCl2 and CdCl2. in which of these solutions precipitation will take place?

Solution

For precipitation to take place, it is required that the calculated ionic product exceeds the Ksp value.

Before mixing:

After mixing:

This ionic product exceeds the Ksp of Zns and CdS. Therefore, precipitation will occur in CdCl2 and ZnCl2 solutions.
