Problem: Identify the precipitate (if any) that forms when KOH and Cu(NO3)2 are mixed.        

FREE Expert Solution

To determine whether or not a precipitate will form when solutions of two salts are mixed with each other, we need to know:

  • What ions are present in the solution?
  • If any of the ion pairs produces an insoluble substance.


Obviously, we also need to know solubility rules.
