Q

In the titration method we must titrate until we acheve concordant results. What is the significance of the mean of the concordant results?

A

This is the exact volume of acid/alkali needed to neutralise and form a pure salt solution.

A
  1. The filtrate is heated to half volume in an evaporation basin
  2. Allowed to cool and crystals form
  3. Filter our crystals and allow to dry
28
Q

In the titration method we must titrate until we acheve concordant results. How do you know when the acid and alkali have exactly neutralised?

A

An indicator is used, a colour change indicates that neutralisation has been reached- there are equal H+ and OH- ions.

29
Q

Which of the following salts are soluble?

Pb(NO3)2

Ca(NO3)2

CuNO3

A

All of them!

All nitrate (NO31-) salts are soluble

30
Q

What are the rules for writing ionic equations?

A
  1. Dissociate or break apart any substance into its ions which is aqueous (aq)
  2. Leave any substance which is liquid (l), solid (s) or gas (g) - do not break them apart into ions (They do not form ions)
  3. Cross out any ions which are the same on both sides of the reaciton - These are called spectator ions!
  4. Rewrite the equation without the spectator ions
