Hello there, this is a discussion question from General Chemistry II class. Question is:
How can you use pH to separate Ni(II) ions from Hg(II) ions?
The solubility product of HgS is roughly 2 x 10-53 and that of NiS is 3 x 10-19. If we wanted to separate these two ions by a differential precipitation, how might I do that? Consider the use of hydrosulfuric acid as your precipitating agent.
I have the answer, I want you to check it and make corrections (highlight in yellow) so I can maximize the points I can get.
Thank you!
