Consider the reaction when aqueous solutions of potassium nitrate and chromium(II) iodide are combined. The net ionic equation for this reaction is:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really need help

OpenStudy (aaronq):

can you predict the products?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 2NO3^- +Cr^2+ > Cr^2+ 2NO3^-

OpenStudy (aaronq):

hm is \(Cr(NO_3)_2\) soluble?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is

OpenStudy (aaronq):

so there is no reaction. potassium nitrate + chromium(II) iodide -> N.R.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i would submit black

OpenStudy (anonymous):

blank

OpenStudy (aaronq):

i would write "no reaction"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so for this one Consider the reaction when aqueous solutions of iron(III) acetate and chromium(III) sulfate are combined. The net ionic equation for this reaction is:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my final answer is 2Fe^3+ + Cr^3+ > Fe^3+ + 2Cr^3+

OpenStudy (aaronq):

nope, you wont ever have 2 metals as net products (ions are always soluble in water).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how is there water in this reaction, i dont understand

OpenStudy (aaronq):

all of these reactions are occurring in a solution where water is the solvent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

acetate is soluble and so is sulfate that is all crossed out right

OpenStudy (aaronq):

it's kind of a tricky question because \(FeSO_4\), where \(Fe^{2+}\), is soluble but \(Fe_2(SO_4)_3\), where \(Fe^{3+}\), is not.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay so i dont separate those?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

nope that would be a precipitate.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and Cr2(SO4)3 would precipitate too right

OpenStudy (aaronq):

when you mix it in water (in the solution) it will break apart into \(Cr^{3+}\) and sulfate ions, so you can assume that it's soluble.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so theres no reactions since everything separated is soluble

OpenStudy (aaronq):

the reaction is between \(Fe^3+\) and \(SO^{2-}_2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my answer is Fe^3+ + SO4^2- >Fe2(SO4)3

OpenStudy (aaronq):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really wow thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are they aqueous state

OpenStudy (aaronq):

on the left side, yes. on the right it's a precipitate, so solid.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its not 2Fe^3+ on the left?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

oh yes, sorry i didn't even check for that, it should be 2Fe^3+ + 3SO4^2- >Fe2(SO4)3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it was wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aaronq!!!?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

oh really? i'm sorry, i'm pretty sure it's insoluble though :S

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you abb0t thats is really helpful
