Question
a Using the
Kep value for
Cu(OH)2 (
1.6 x 10-19) and the overall formation constant for
Cu(NH3)2+ (
1.0 x 1013), calculate the value for the equilibrium constant for the following reaction:
Cu(OH)2(8)+4NH, (aq)
K = = 1.6x10^-6
Cu(NH3)42+ (aq) + 20H(aq)
buse the value of the equilibrium constant you calculated in part a to calculate the solubility (in mol/L) of Cu(OH)2 in 4.8 M NH3. In 4.8 M NH3 the
concentration of OH is 0.0093 M.
Solubility =
mol/L
