Question

it is also possible to predict which compounds are likely to be insoluble and form precipitates using the same observations. based on these patterns (table 7.1), which of the following compounds would be expected to form precipitates? (pick all that apply) note: exceptions include compounds containing nh₄⁺ and group i cations as well as ba²⁺ in some cases. compounds containing hydroxide compounds containing phosphates compounds containing chlorates compounds containing halides compounds containing carbonates

Explanation:

• Compounds containing hydroxide: Most hydroxides are insoluble except those with \(NH_4^{+}\), group I cations, and \(Ba^{2+}\) (in some cases).
• Compounds containing phosphates: Most phosphates are insoluble except those with \(NH_4^{+}\) and group I cations.
• Compounds containing chlorates: Chlorates are generally soluble.
• Compounds containing halides: Most halides are soluble except \(AgX\), \(PbX_2\), \(Hg_2X_2\) (\(X = Cl\), \(Br\), \(I\)).
• Compounds containing carbonates: Most carbonates are insoluble except those with \(NH_4^{+}\) and group I cations.

Answer:

compounds containing hydroxide, Compounds containing phosphates, Compounds containing carbonates.
