Question

Indicate whether or not each of the following ionic compounds will undergo hydrolysis and predict whether the resulting solution pH will be acidic, basic, or indeterminate (both ions undergo hydrolysis). (a) Pb(Co3)2 acidic hydrolysis O basic hydrolysis O indeterminate hydrolysis O no hydrolysis (b) AgBr O acidic hydrolysis basic hydrolysis indeterminate hydrolysis O no hydrolysis (c) Lici O acidic hydrolysis O basic hydrolysis indeterminate hydrolysis O no hydrolysis (d) Pb(NO3)4 acidic hydrolysis basic hydrolysis O indeterminate hydrolysis no hydrolysis

Explanation / Answer

a. Pb(CO3)2 is precipitate . it is not soluble in water.

no hydrolysis

b. AgBr is precipitate. It is not soluble in water.

no hydrolysis

c. LiCl

indeterminate hydrolysis

d. Pb(NO3)4

acidic hydrolysis due to cationic hydrolysis.

acidic hydrolyiss.
