Medal and fan The equilibrium reaction between chromate (CrO4^2-) and dichromate (CR2O7^2-) can be described by the following reaction: 2CrO4^2- + 2H^+ <-> Cr2O7^2- + H2O yellow orange The color of the solution can change depending on the species in excess. The Adding Ba(NO3)2 to the reaction causes CrO4^2- to precipitate. Describe how Ba(NO3)2 can be used to determine how much CrO4^2- is present, and then identify the color of the solution with a greater amount of precipitate. Thanks(:

sorry not sure about this one \(\color{green}{\huge\ddot\frown}\)

OpenStudy (somy):

oh sorry i was off

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, that's fine. I think I actually figured it out when I was explaining precipitate formation to @rishavraj . The common ion Oxygen decreases k, and when q is more than k, a precipitate forms.

OpenStudy (somy):

oh thats good then :)

OpenStudy (somy):

just in case)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think that would be correct. I think the precipitate would be yellow since k<1, which means equilibrium would favor the reactants, and the color of the chromate is yellow.

OpenStudy (somy):

this is whats written in my book :) so yeah u r right :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This has to do with the common ion principle plus k isn't given.

OpenStudy (somy):

yeah but even if K is not given they are not asking u for it anyways, the principle is still same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yupppp(:

OpenStudy (somy):

they already told u that ppt WILL be formed so they already told u that K is less then [Ba2+][CrO4^2]

OpenStudy (somy):

or whatever that it was

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And since K is under 1 because of the common ion, it shifts towards the reactants.

OpenStudy (somy):

lol i guess so actually by telling u all these im learning side by side lmao

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hahaha, I've learned things that I didn't know either xD

OpenStudy (somy):

lmao nice :D
