Question

1.   The Ksp is important because it can be used to calculate the concentrations of the ions in a saturated solution. For a solution of silver (I) chloride
A.   Write the expression for Ksp for the salt.

B.   If the Ksp of AgCl is 1.59 x 10-10 what is the concentration of silver in solution at saturation?

2.   What is the molecular mass of KHT? (K C4O6 H5)?

3.   For a solution of PbCl2 the Ksp is 1.2 x 10-5
A.   Write the expression for Ksp for the salt.

B.   If the Ksp of AgCl is 1.59 x 10-10 what is the concentration of silver in solution at saturation?

Please answer the questions with clearly written final answer

Explanation / Answer

1)

A)

AgCl (s)   --------------> Ag+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)

expression :

Ksp = [Ag+][Cl-]

B)

Ksp of AgCl = 1.59 x 10^-10

Ksp = [Ag+][Cl-]

1.59 x 10^-10 = S^2

S = 1.26 x 10^-5 M

concentration of Ag+ = 1.26 x 10^-5 M
