45). A student hopes to dissolve 0.900 g of Pbl2 in pure water to make 1 L of solution. Will all 0.900 g of Pbl2 dissolve in pure water to make a 1L of solution as hoped by the student? a. All 0.900 g of Pbl2 will dissolve. b. Not all 0.900 g of Pbl2 will dissolve. c. This is way under saturation, so all 0.900 g of Pbl, will dissolve. d. Cannot be predicted

Expert Solution
Step 1

Since the solubility product of PbI2 = 9.8 X 10-9 at 25 oC

And the solubility reaction of PbI2 is

=> PbI2 (s) ------> Pb2+ (aq) + 2 I- (aq)

 

Step 2

Assuming the solubility of PbI2 is s. Hence maximum s concentration of PbI2 will dissolve in water

Hence the concentration of ions formed at equilibrium are 

[Pb2+ ]= concentration of PbI2 dissolved = s 

[I- ] = concentration of PbI2 dissolved X 2 = 2s

Since the solubility product of PbI2 is given by 

Ksp = [Pb2+ ][I- ]2 

Hence substituting the values we get 

9.8 X 10-9 = s X (2s)2 

=> s = maximum concentration of PbI2 that can be dissolved = 0.00135 M
