**Problem Statement:**

Copper(I) ions in aqueous solution react with NH\(_3\)(aq) according to:
\[ \text{Cu}^+(\text{aq}) + 2 \text{NH}_3(\text{aq}) \longrightarrow \text{Cu(NH}_3\text{)}_2^+(\text{aq}) \hspace{1cm} K_f = 6.3 \times 10^{10} \]

Calculate the solubility (in g·L\(^{-1}\)) of CuBr(s) \((K_{sp} = 6.3 \times 10^{-9}\)) in 0.87 M NH\(_3\)(aq).

---

**Answer:**

\[ \text{solubility of CuBr(s):} \hspace{1cm} 2.50 \times 10^{-3} \hspace{1cm} \text{g/L} \]

Incorrect.
