Given the double displacement reaction below, which of the products would be soluble in water and which would likely form a solid precipitate? how do you know? (lesson 12) 2 agno3(aq) + k2co3 (aq) ? ag2co3 + kno3

The balanced reaction will be

2 agno3(aq) + k2co3 (aq) > Ag2CO3 (s) + KNO3(aq)

There will be formation of precipitate of silver carbonate

The salt of potassium nitrate will be soluble in water

This must be due to

a) Ksp of silver carbonate is low

b) nitrates of all cations are soluble in water as they have high Ksp

Where:

Ksp is solubility product

so here we go

atomic mass

239 + 1 = y + 134 + 3 combine like terms

240 = y + 137             subtract 137 from both terms

240 - 137 = y

103 = y

atomic number

94 = z +54 + 0

94 = z + 54               subtract 54 from both sides.

40 = z
