Does solubility product dictate predominant precipitate from the solution with several ionic compounds?
While removing temporary hardness through boiling, magnesium bicarbonate will give $\ce{Mg(OH)2}.$ $\ce{Mg(OH)2}$ predominates over $\ce{MgCO3}$ as the solubility product $K_\mathrm{sp}$ of $\ce{Mg(OH)...

Why does balancing the oxidation of dichromate(VI) to chromium(III) require six iron atoms?
The problem:
Balance the following chemical equation using oxidation numbers:
$$ \ce{Fe^2+ + Cr_2O_7^2- -> Fe^3+ + Cr^3+} $$
What I have tried:
$$\ce{\overset{+II}{Fe}^{2+}(aq) + \overset{+VI}{Cr}...

My textbook writes hydronium ion as [H(H2O)]+, is this correct? [closed]
[...] Thus, it bonds to the oxygen atom of a solvent water
molecule to give trigonal pyramidal hydronium ion, $\ce{H3O^+}$ $\ce{\{[H (H2O)]^+\}}$ (see box).
In this chapter we shall use $\ce{H^+(aq)}$ ...

Why does balancing the reduction of dichromate(VI) to chromium(III) require four water molecules among the products?
Problem
Balance the following chemical equation using oxidation numbers:
$$\ce{Cr2O7^2–(aq) + HNO2(aq) –> Cr^3+(aq) + NO3–(aq)}$$
Solution (in Swedish)
$$\ce{\overset{+VI}{Cr}_2O7^2–(aq) + H\...

How can the Kw of water be constant?
I know in neutral solution, $\ce{[H+]}= \ce{[OH-]}= \pu{1.0 x 10^-7}$.
However, let’s say I add an acid like HCl. This will increase $\ce{[H+]}$, therefore it’s no longer $\pu{1.0 x 10^-7}$, but is ...

Solubility of SrF2 in aqueous solution of NaF
This might be really simple question but I have no idea how to proceed to solve such kind of question.
The solubility product of $\ce{SrF2}$ in water is $\pu{8E-10}$. Calculate its solubility in 0.1M ...

Equilibrium Solubility of CO2 in Aqueous Solution and its Dependence on H3O+ Concentration
The equilibrium solubility of $\ce{CO2}$ in an aqueous solution is given by three chemical reactions:
$$
\begin{align}
\ce{CO2(g) &<=> CO2(aq)}\label{rxn:R1}\tag{R1}\\
\ce{CO2(aq) + H2O &...

Successive deprotonation - how far can it go?
It has been written that among the equilibria of the dissolution of $\ce{SO_2}$ in water, the dissociation of sulphur dioxide into $\ce{HSO_3^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)}$ is a complete dissociation. See the ...

Why does the reaction of dissolution stop at an equilibrium point? [closed]
The formula for Gibbs free energy is $\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S$.
If Gibbs free energy is negative, the reaction is spontaneous. This also applies to dissolution reactions.
However, we know that ...

Would a container made of sugar eventually dissolve if filled with a sugar-saturated solution of water?
Suppose you had a bottle made of sugar glass, and filled it with water that was already saturated with sugar.
I know that with a fully saturated solution of sugar in water, no additional sugar can ...

Why phenolphthalein is not completely neutralized in basic solutions? [closed]
Phenolphthalein $(\ce{HIn})$ is slightly acidic. Why doesn't it completely break down into $\ce{H+}$ and $\ce{In-}$ and also reacting with all of the $\ce{OH-}$ ion present, unlike $\ce{NaOH}$ and $\...
