Is chromate a suitable indicator for the titration of Ag⁺ with Cl⁻?
To titrate $\ce{Cl-}$ with $\ce{Ag+}$ we use chromate $\ce{CrO4^2-}$ as an indicator.
The titration reaction is:
$$\ce{Ag+ + Cl- <=> AgCl}\tag{R1}$$
$$K_1 = \frac{1}{K_\mathrm{sp}(\ce{AgCl})} =...

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^...
