Silver chloride is often used as a test for silver ion in qualitative analysis. Using the solubility product constant ( K, = 1.8 x 10-10), calculate the molar solubility of silver chloride in water. Molar solubility
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
molar solubilty is defined as no. Of moles of solute dissolved in per liter of solution before the solution staurated.
silver chloride dissociation,
AgCl --------------> Ag+ + Cl -
Now we write ksp expressions for above reaction,
Let the molar solubilty of AgCl is (S)
Then it molar solubilty of Ag+ = (S) and Cl - = (S)
Ksp = [Ag+] [ Cl - ]
So, Ksp = S2
Given Ksp = 1.8 × 1010
