Term
group II cations
Definition
Bi3+, Cd2+, Cu2+, Sn4+
Term
how do you precipitate the group II cations?
Definition
S2- (sulfide ion)
Term
what is the source of S2- (sulfide ion) that we use to precipitate the group II cations?
Definition
H2S
Term
what is the difference between HCl and H2S re: their behaviors in water?
Definition
HCl is very soluble; H2S is very INsoluble.
Term
what might happen if the group II solution is too acidic before adding H2S?
Definition
sulfide ion concentration might be too low to precipitate all the group II cations
Term
color: bismuth hydroxide
Definition
white
Term
color: sulfur
Definition
white
Term
color: cadmium sulfide
Definition
yellow-orange
Term
color: Bi3+
Definition
colorless
Term
color: SnS2
Definition
yellow
Term
color: Bi2S3
Definition
black
Term
color: CuS
Definition
black/brown
Term
the reason that cadmium sulfide dissolves in 3M HCl is
Definition
the Cl- and the Cd2+ form a complex ion which enables the CdS <--> Cd2+ + S2- equilibrium to move forward
Term

a group II sulfide that is soluble in a strong base is: ______

by what process does it dissolve?

Definition

SnS2

- dissolves by complex ion formation

Term
how can you tell whether a solid is Bi2S3 or CdS?
Definition
observe - Bi2S3 is black; CdS is yellow-orange.
Term
how do you tell whether a solid is CuS or Bi2S3?
Definition
dissolve in HNO3. CuS will be blue.
Term
net ionic equation: tin(IV) nitrite is treated with H2S
Definition
Sn4+(aq)+2S2-(aq) --> SnS2(s)
Term
net ionic equation: excess ammonia reacts with copper(II) ion solution
Definition
Cu2+ + 4NH3 <--> Cu[(NH3)4]2+
Term
net ionic equation: bismuth sulfide dissolves in nitric acid solution
Definition
Bi2S3(s) + 2NO3- + 8H3O --> 3S(s) + 2NO + 12H2O +2Bi3+
Term
the net ionic equations of Cd2+, Cu2+, Bi3+, and Sn4+ reacting with H2S
Definition

Cd2+ + S2- --> CdS (s) 

Cu2+ + S2- --> CuS (s)

Bi3+ + S2- --> Bi2S(s)

Sn4+ + S2- --> SnS2(s)
