Question

CL was tasked to identify the white solid inorganic salt that Dr. Yang gave her. From her preliminary tests, the possible identities were narrowed down to the following:

please answer A and B

Zn(CN)2
Ksp (30°C) = 7.30 x 10-12
AgSCN
Ksp (30°C) = 5.90 × 10-11
CL chose to investigate the solubility equilibrium of this salt and determine its identity. To
a 100.0 mL distilled water at room temperature, CL added the unknown reagent until it no
longer dissolves. After letting the mixture stand for 15 mins, she filtered and collected the
filtrate in another beaker. From this, a 20.00 mL aliquot was drawn and was titrated with
10.20 M of 5.00 x 10-4 M HCI to reach the phenolphthalein endpoint.
A. Let X be the titratable species from the dissolved salt. Determine the concentration of
X* from the titration data.
B. Based on the results of CL's experiment and the provided constants, what is the likely
identity of the unknown salt? Show complete solutions to support your answer.
