Suppose you need to make the following two precipitates (by two different precipitation reactions): MgCO3 and Ca3(PO4)2. For each reaction, choose the reactants from the drop-down box in such a way that the precipitate you need to make is the only product that forms?

Respuesta :

Answer:

For the first reaction the reagents are: MgCl2 and Na2CO3

For the second reaction the reagents are: Na2HPO4 and CaCl2

Explanation:

Precipitation reactions lie in the production of a compound that is not soluble, which is called a precipitate, this precipitate is produced when two different solutions are combined, each of which will contribute an ion for the formation of the precipitate. In the first reaction you have:

MgCl2 + Na2CO3 = MgCO3 + 2 NaCl

Type of reaction: double displacement

The second reaction is as follows:

4Na2HPO4 + 3CaCl2 → Ca3 (PO4) 2 + 2NaH2PO4 + 6NaCl

It is the reaction of sodium hydrochlorophosphate and calcium chloride
