This assignment engages students in applying solubility rules and stoichiometric calculations to design a method for separating metal ions in solution. Students must justify their choice of precipitating agent, calculate the mass required for selective precipitation, and evaluate the efficiency of their separation strategy. The task reinforces quantitative reasoning and critical thinking in a real-world chemistry context.
