PRE-LABORATORY EXERCISES:
1. On the basis of the solubility rules for salts, predict the products and write
BALANCED equations for each of the following reactions. If no reaction occurs,
write "no reaction".
(a) Pb2+ (aq) + SO42- (aq) →
(b) Cu(NO3)2 (aq) + Na2S (aq) →
(c) Fe(NO3)3 (aq) + NaOH (aq) →
(d) Al (OH)3 (s) + HNO3 (aq) →
(e) FeCl3 (aq) + NH3 (aq) + H2O (l) →
(f) Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + HCl (aq) →
2. What does the term "amphoteric "mean?
3. Read solubility rules of metal chlorides before coming to the lab.
