Study Notes
Solubility Equilibrium
- Solubility is the equilibrium amount of solute that dissolves in a given amount of solvent at a given temperature and pressure.
- Solubility can be mathematically expressed using the solubility product constant (Ksp).
Ksp Expression
- The Ksp expression is written as: Ksp = [A+] [B-]^n, where [A+] is the concentration of the cation and [B-]^n is the concentration of the anion raised to the power of its stoichiometric coefficient.
Calculations Involving Solubility Equilibria
- To compute the solubility of a reaction, follow these steps:
- Write the balanced equilibrium reaction.
- Write the Ksp expression.
- Make an ICE (Initial, Change, and Equilibrium) table.
- Substitute the values into the Ksp equation and solve for x.
Sample Problems
- Compute the solubility of the reaction of Ag+ and Br-: Ksp = 5.0x10^-13, x = 7.07 x10^-7 M.
- Compute the solubility of the reaction of Ca2+ and F-: Ksp = 4.0x10^-11, x = 2.15 x10^-4 M.
Assessment Task
- Enumerate and describe the different concepts in solubility.
- Write the solubility product expression for PbSO4, Ca3(PO4)2, and Fe(OH)3.
- Compute the solubility of the reaction of PbCl2, Fe2+ and CO32-, and Ca2+ and F-.
- Compute the solubility of the reaction of Ag+ and SO42-.
Complexation Equilibria
- The reaction between an acceptor metal ion M and a ligand L is characterized by an equilibrium constant (Kf).
- Example: The copper-EDTA complex at 25°C: Kf = 6.3 x 10^18.
Solubility Equilibria in Analysis
- Solubility equilibria can be used analytically to separate and determine the concentration of insoluble compounds.
- Example: Gravimetric analysis of sulfate ions using barium chloride (BaCl2).
- The solubility product (Ksp) is an equilibrium constant for the reaction: BaSO4 (s) = Ba2+ + SO4 2-.
