Question

Given the following equilibria, calculate the concentration of each copper species in a solution saturated with Cu(OH)2(s) and containing [OH-] at a fixed concentration of 3.2 x 10^-7 M.

 

Cu(OH)2(s) Ksp= 4.8 x 10^-20

 

Cu(OH)^+ B1= 3.16 x 10^6

 

Cu(OH)2(aq) B2= 6.31 x 10^11

 

Cu(OH)3 ^- B3= 3.16 x 10^14

 

Cu(OH)4 ^2- B4= 3.98 x 10^15
