A solution of 100.0 mL of 0.200 M KOH is mixed with a solution of 200.0 mL of 0.150 M NiSO4. (a) Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs. (b) What precipitate forms? (c) What is the limiting reactant? (d) How many grams of this precipitate form? (e) What is the concentration of each ion that remains in solution?

a) 2KOH + NiSO₄ → K₂SO₄ + Ni(OH)₂

b) Ni(OH)₂

c) KOH

d) 0.927 g

e) K⁺=0.067 M, SO₄²⁻=0.1 M, Ni²⁺=0.067 M

Explanation:

a) The equation is:

2KOH + NiSO₄ → K₂SO₄ + Ni(OH)₂   (1)        

b) The precipitate formed is Ni(OH)₂  

c) The limiting reactant is:

From equation (1) we have that 2 moles of KOH react with 1 mol of NiSO₄, so the number of moles of KOH is:

Hence, the limiting reactant is KOH.  

d) The mass of the precipitate formed is:

e) The concentration of the SO₄²⁻, K⁺, and Ni²⁺ ions are:

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.
