Answer:
Explanation:
Concentration of Cu⁺² = 9.25 x 10³ M
Concentration of Mn⁺² = 1.4 x 10² M
solubility product of copper carbonate = 7.08 x 10⁻⁹
solubility product of manganese carbonate = 2.24 x 10⁻¹¹
solubility product of later is less so carbonate of manganese will come out first .
B )
[ Mn⁺² ] [ CO₃⁻² ] = 2.24 x 10⁻¹¹
1.4 x 10² [ CO₃⁻² ] = 2.24 x 10⁻¹¹
[ CO₃⁻² ] = 1.6 x 10⁻¹³ .
the concentration of carbonate ion when this precipitation first begins
= 1.6 x 10⁻¹³ M .
