In quantitative analysis, Ag+, Hg2+, and Pb2+ are seperated from other cations by the addition of HCl. Calculate the concentration of Cl-ions required to just begin the precipitation of (a) AgCl, (b) Hg2Cl2, (c) PbCl2 in a solution hav-ing metal-ion concentrations of 0.030 M. What fraction of the Pb2+ remains in solution when the Ag+ just begins to precipitate?
