- When 5 M ammonia is added to a solution containing Cu(OH)2(s), the precipitate will eventually dissolve in solution. Why? If 5 M HNO3 is then added, the Cu(OH)2 precipitate re-forms. Why? In general, what effect does the ability of a cation to form a complex ion have on the solubility of salts containing that cation?arrow_forwardLead(II) chromate, PbCrO4, was used as a yellow paint pigment (chrome yellow). When a solution is prepared that is 5.0 104 M in lead ion, Pb2, and 5.0 105 M in chromate ion, CrO42, would you expect some of the lead(II) chromate to precipitate?arrow_forwardA solution is made up by adding 0.632 g of barium nitrate and 0.920 g of lanthanum nitrate, to La(NO3)3 enough water to make 0.500 L of solution.
