Question:

Solid {eq}\rm NaI {/eq} is slowly added to a solution that is {eq}0.010\ M {/eq} in {eq}\rm Cu^+ {/eq} and {eq}0.010\ M {/eq} in {eq}\rm Ag^+ {/eq}.

a.) Which compound will precipitate first.

b.) Calculate {eq}\rm [Ag^+] {/eq} when {eq}\rm CuI {/eq} just begins to precipitate.

c.) What {eq}\% {/eq} of {eq}\rm Ag^+ {/eq} remains in solution.

Precipitation:

The separation of various cations in specific solution is done by their precipitation which involves their reaction with anions. This method further helps in determining various ions that acquire solution.
