rinciple, the ions Ba2+ and Ca2+ can be separated by the difference in solubility of their fluorides, BaF2 and CaF2. If you have a solution that is 0.10 M in both Ba2+ and Ca2+, CaF2 will begin to precipitate first as fluoride ion is added slowly to the solution. a. What concentration of fluoride ion will precipitate the maximum amount of Ca2+ ion without precipi- tating BaF2? b. What concentration of Ca2+ remains in solution when BaF2 just begins

Question
  1. In principle, the ions Ba2+ and Ca2+ can be separated by the difference in solubility of their fluorides, BaF2 and CaF2. If you have a solution that is 0.10 M in both Ba2+ and Ca2+, CaF2 will begin to precipitate first as fluoride ion is added slowly to the solution.

    a. What concentration of fluoride ion will precipitate the maximum amount of Ca2+ ion without precipi- tating BaF2?

    b. What concentration of Ca2+ remains in solution when BaF2 just begins to precipitate?
