Explanation / Answer

Q.2

Potassium chromate + Silver nitrate -- >

We use solubility chart to answer this question.

Formula for potassium chromate

K2Cr2O4

Silver nitrate : AgNO3

When we look at solubility chart, we can see that chromate with silver are insoluble so Ag2Cr2O4 is the precipitate in this reaction.

Molecular reaction: ( balanced)

Potassium chromate + Silver nitrate -- > Silver chromate + potassium nitrate

K2Cr2O4(aq) + 2AgNO3 (aq) --- >Ag2CrO4(s) + 2KNO3(aq)

Total ionic equation:

We split the aqueous terms into ions and rest will be as it is.

2K+(aq) + Cr2O4^2-(aq) + 2Ag+(aq) +2NO3^- (aq) --- >Ag2CrO4(s) + 2K+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq)

Net ionic equation:

We cancel the spectator ions from both side.

Cr2O4^2-(aq) + 2Ag+(aq) --- >Ag2CrO4(s)

Q.3

Potassium chromate + lead (II) nitrate

We follow the same discussion as we had in question 2.

Potassium chromate + lead ( II) nitrate --- > lead ( II) chromate + potassium nitrate

Molecular equation:

K2CrO4 (aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) --- > PbCrO4(s) + 2 KNO3(aq)

Total ionic:

2K+(aq) + Cr2O4^2-(aq) + Pb2+(aq) +2NO3^- (aq) --- >PbCrO4(s) + 2K+(aq) +2 NO3-(aq)

Net ionic :

Cr2O4^2-(aq) + Pb2+(aq) --- >PbCrO4(s)

Q.4

Potassium chromate + Sodium Carbonate --- > No reaction

Reaction is not possible as both ions are soluble with potassium and sodium.

Q. 5

Potassium chromate + Barium chloride --- > Barium chromate + potassium chloride

Molecular equation:

K2CrO4 (aq) + BaCl2(aq) --- > BaCrO4(s) + 2 KCl(aq)

Total ionic:

2K+(aq) + Cr2O4^2-(aq) + Ba2+(aq) +2Cl^- (aq) --- >BaCrO4(s) + 2K+(aq) +2Cl-(aq)

Net ionic :

Cr2O4^2-(aq) + Ba2+(aq) --- >BaCrO4(s)

Q. 6

Potassium chromate + Hydrochloric acid --- > Chromic acid + Chloride.

Molecular equation:

K2CrO4 (aq) + 2HCl(aq) --- > H2CrO4(aq) + 2 KCl(aq)

Total ionic:

2K+(aq) + Cr2O4^2-(aq) + 2H+(aq) +2Cl^- (aq) --- > H2CrO4(aq) + 2K+(aq) +2 Cl-(aq)

Net ionic:

Cr2O4^2-(aq) + 2H+(aq) --- >H2CrO4(aq)
