Does sodium sulfate react with silver nitrate?

Silver nitrate, AgNO3 , will react with sodium sulfate, Na2SO4 , to produce silver sulfate, Ag2SO4 , an ionic compound that is considered insoluble in aqueous solution, and aqueous sodium nitrate.

Does NaBr and AgNO3 form a precipitate?

Silver Nitrate with Sodium Bromide Here, sodium bromide (NaBr) is added to silver nitrate (AgNO3). The result is a white precipitate.

What happens when excess of silver nitrate solution is added to potassium iodide solution and why?

When a dilute solution of silver nitrate (AgI) is added to excess dilute solution of potassium iodide, silver iodide with negative charged sol is generated. This formation of negative charged sol is due to the absorption of iodide ion (I−) from the dispersion medium on the precipitate formed by the silver iodide.

Why is silver iodide used in artificial rain?

Silver iodide is used for producing artificial rains because when AgI is sprayed over clouds it causes water droplets of clouds to coalesce to form bigger water drops and induce rains. Silver iodide increases the number of cloud condensation nuclei around (CCN) which water vapor may form microscopic water droplets.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of cloud seeding?

Here we look at the various advantages and disadvantages of cloud seeding.

  • Pros of Cloud Seeding. Rain Creation. Boosting of the Economy. Weather Regulation. Makes Dry Places More Livable.
  • Cons of Cloud Seeding. Requires the use of Potentially Harmful Chemicals. It is Not Foolproof. It is expensive. Poses Weather Problems.

What is the impact of cloud seeding?

In the United States, cloud seeding is used to increase precipitation in areas experiencing drought, to reduce the size of hailstones that form in thunderstorms, and to reduce the amount of fog in and around airports.

Can cloud seeding cause hurricanes?

The reason that tropical cyclones have little supercooled water is that the updrafts within such a system are too weak to prevent water from either falling as rain or freezing. As cloud seeding needed supercooled water to function, the lack of supercooled water meant that seeding would have no effect.

Can rain be made artificially?

For the uninitiated, cloud seeding or weather modification is an artificial way to induce moisture in the clouds so as to cause a rainfall. In this process, either silver iodide or dry ice is dumped onto the clouds by using an aircraft or an artillery gun which leads to a rain shower.
