Question
Consider the dissolution of the metal salt MX2 in water and its
subsequent interaction with the ligand L:
MX-(s) M2 + (aq) + 2X(aq)
M2+(aq) + 2L(aq) = ML:(aq)
Given the equilibrium constants:
Ksp (MX) = 4.0 x 10-12
Kf (for ML formation) = 1.0 x 106
If the solution is saturated with respect to MX, and 0.1 M L is
added, what is the molar solubility of MX, in this solution?
