Determine concentration of phosphate after copper(II) oxalate is precipitated

Solution with $\ce{Na3PO4}$ with $\pu{0.02 M}$ concentration and $\ce{Na2C2O4}$ with $\pu{0.03 M}$ concentration. I add excess $\ce{Cu(NO3)2}$ very carefully – tiny amounts. What will be my $\ce{PO4^...

Why exactly does precipitation occur?

In a solution, we have ions floating around but when we have a precipitate, they're arranged as they would be in a solid. This conversion should cause a decrement in the entropy of the system and ...

How to know when dissolution is complete?

In a given solubility equilibrium, I know that if $ Q >K_s$, then the salt will precipitate until $ Q =K_s$. If $ Q <K_s$, however, would the precipitate dissolve until $ Q =K_s$ too?

How to determine the minimum pH at which iron(III) hydroxide dissolves completely?

Knowing $K_\mathrm{s} = 6\cdot10^{-38}$ for $\ce{Fe(OH)3}$ in neutral solutions, calculate the minimum pH of an acidic solution in order to completely dissolve $\pu{10 mg}$ of $\ce{Fe(OH)3}$. Data: $V ...

The behaviour of Ag3PO4 in solution

To a $\pu{1L}$ flask, we add $\pu{4.1900 g}$ ($\pu{0.01001 mol}$) of $\ce{Ag3PO4}$, then fill it up with water. Knowing the following constants, we are asked to find the concentration of all species ...
