Precipitates question
« on: March 20, 2010, 06:40:05 am »
A 3cm3 sample of a solution of the nitrate of metal Q , concentration 1 mol/dm3, was added to 2cm3 of potassium fluoride, conc. = 1mol/dm3.

When the precipitate settled its height was measured. The experiment was then repeated using different volumes of potassium fluoride solution.

A diagram is displayed with the question. It shows that at 6cm3 the precipitates height stops increasing.


What is the formula of the fluoride of metal Q ??

I got QF2... what do u get and please show your methid

No prob

the height of the ppt stops increasing after 6cm3....so this is the max moles of ppt that caan be formed with 3cm3 of metal nitrate

3cm3 of QNO3= 3X10^-3 moles
6cm3 of KF= 6X10^-3 moles

ratio 1:2

hence QF2
