Question

For each of the salts on the left, match the salts on the right that can be compared directly, using K_sp values, to estimate solubilities. (If more than one salt on the right can be directly compared, include all the relevant salts by writing your answer as a string of characters without punctuation, e.g. ABC.) manganese(II) sulfide Ag_2SO_3 lead fluoride FeS CaSO_3 CaSO_4 Write the expression for K in terms of the solubility, s, for each salt, when dissolved in water. Zinc phosphate is MORE soluble than zinc phosphate is LESS soluble than Ba_3(PO_4)_2 PbSO_4 Pb_3(PO_4)_2 AgBr

Explanation / Answer

MnS (s) <---------------> Mn2+ (aq.) + S2- (aq.)

Manganese(II)sulphide

Ksp = [Mn2+][S2-]

Ksp = S * S

Ksp = S2  

Lead fluoride,

PbF2 (s) <-------------> Pb2+ (aq.) + 2 F- (aq.)

Ksp = [Pb2+][F-]2

Ksp = S * S2

Ksp = S3

*****

Ksp of zinc phosphate = 9.0 * 10-33

Ksp of Barium phosphate = 3 * 10-23

Ksp of PbSO4 = 1.8*10-8

Ksp of Pb3(PO4)2 = 7.9*10-43

Ksp of AgBr = 5.4*10-13

SO, zinc phosphate is more soluble than lead phosphate

zinc phosphate is less soluble than Barium phosphate, lead sulphate, silver bromide.
