- A scientist was interested in how soluble rust is in acidic soils, so she set up an idealized problem to get an initial feel for the situation. A fairly acidic soil has a pH of 4.50. Also, rust is essentially Fe(OH)3. Therefore, she considered the following problem: Suppose a 1.00-g sample of iron(III) hydroxide is exposed to 1.00 L of a buffer with a pH of 4.50. She then calculated the nanograms of Fe3+ that dissolve in a liter of this buffer. Show how you would do this problem. Explain your work.arrow_forwardAlthough silver chloride is insoluble in water, it readily dissolves upon the addition of ammonia. AgCl(s)+2NH3(aq)Ag(NH3)2+(aq)+Cl(aq) a What is the equilibrium constant for this dissolving process? b Ammonia is added to a solution containing excess AgCl(s). The final volume is 1.00 L and the resulting equilibrium concentration of NH3 is 0.80 M. Calculate the number of moles of AgCl dissolved, the molar concentration of Ag(NH3)2+, and the number of moles of NH3 added to the original solution.arrow_forwardThe ore cinnabar (HgS) is an important source of mercury.

- Crystals of AgBr can be removed from black-and-white photographic film by reacting the AgBr with sodium thiosulfate. AgBr(s)+2S2O32(aq)[Ag(S2O3)2]3(aq)+Br(aq) a What is the equilibrium constant for this dissolving process? b In order to dissolve 2.5 g of AgBr in 1.0 L of solution, how many moles of Na2S2O3 must be added?arrow_forwardAt 20 C, a saturated aqueous solution of silver acetate, AgCH3CO2, contains 1.0 g of the silver compound dissolved in 100.0 mL of solution. Calculate Ksp for silver acetate. AgCH3CO2(s)Ag+(aq)+CH3CO2(aq)arrow_forwardBecause barium sulfate is opaque to X-rays, it is suspended in water and taken internally to make the gastrointestinal tract visible in an X-ray photograph. Although barium ion is quite toxic, barium sulfate’s /Csp of 1.1 X 10-,<) gives it such low solubility' that it can be safely consumed. What is the molar solubility' of BaSO4.

- Consider the insoluble salts JQ, K2R, L2S3, MT2, and NU3. They are formed from the metal ions J+, K+, L3+, M2+, and N3+ and the nonmetal ions Q-, R2-, S2-, T-, and U-. All the salts have the same Ksp, 11010 at 25C. (a) Which salt has the highest molar solubility? (b) Does the salt with the highest molar solubility have the highest solubility in g salt/100 g water? (c) Can the solubility of each salt in g/ 100 g water be determined from the information given? If yes, calculate the solubility of each salt in g/100 g water. If no, why not?arrow_forwardTo a beaker with 500 mL of water are added 95 mg of Ba(NO3)2, 95 mg of Ca(NO3)2, and 100.0 mg of Na2CO3. After equilibrium is established, will there be • no precipitate? • a precipitate of BaCO3 only? • a precipitate of CaCO3 only? • a precipitate of both CaCO3 and BaCO3? Assume that the volume of the solution is still 500.0 mL after the addition of the salts.arrow_forwardNeither PbCl2 nor PbF2 is appreciably soluble in water. If solid PbCl2 and solid PbF2 are placed in equal amounts of water in separate beakers, in which beaker is the concentration of Pb2+ greater? Equilibrium constants for these solids dissolving in water are as follows: PbCl2(s) Pb2+(aq) + 2 Cl(aq)Kc = 1.7 105 PbF2(s) Pb2+(aq) + 2 F(aq)Kc = 3.7 108arrow_forward
