The correct Answer is:
To separate the precipitates of Fe(OH)₃ and Cr(OH)₃, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Precipitates**: - We have two hydroxides: Iron(III) hydroxide, Fe(OH)₃, and Chromium(III) hydroxide, Cr(OH)₃. 2. **Consider the Solubility in Acids**: - Both Fe(OH)₃ and Cr(OH)₃ are soluble in strong acids (like HCl and H₂SO₄). Therefore, using these acids will not help in separating the two hydroxides as they will dissolve. 3. **Evaluate Aqueous Ammonia**: - Aqueous ammonia can dissolve Cr(OH)₃ partially but does not affect Fe(OH)₃, which remains insoluble. However, since Cr(OH)₃ is only partially soluble, this method is not effective for complete separation. 4. **Consider NaOH with H₂O₂**: - When NaOH is added along with hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), Cr(OH)₃ reacts to form soluble chromate ions (CrO₄²⁻), which results in a yellow solution. This means Cr(OH)₃ can be completely dissolved in this solution. - On the other hand, Fe(OH)₃ remains insoluble in this alkaline medium, allowing for the complete separation of the two hydroxides. 5. **Conclusion**: - The best reagent combination for the complete separation of Fe(OH)₃ and Cr(OH)₃ is **NaOH with H₂O₂**. ### Final Answer: Fe(OH)₃ and Cr(OH)₃ precipitates can be completely separated by **NaOH with H₂O₂**. ---
