Textbook Question
Chapter 16, Problem 80AE
The U.S. Public Health Service recommends the fluoridation of water as a means for preventing tooth decay. The recommended concentration is 1 mg F− per liter. The presence of calcium ions in hard water can precipitate the added fluoride. What is the maximum molarity of calcium ions in hard water if the fluoride concentration is at the USPHS recommended level? (Ksp for CaF2 = 4.0 × 10−11)

The Yucca Mountain repository in Nevada, which is intended for the long-term storage of nuclear waste, has long been mired in controversy. One ongoing concern is whether the stainless-steel alloy containers could be corroded by salts such as calcium fluoride (CaF2). If the calcium ion concentration in water inside Yucca Mountain is 1.25 x 10–3 M, what is the maximum possible concentration of fluoride ion in this water? Assume calcium fluoride4 Ksp = 2.2 x 10–10 at the temperatures inside the nuclear waste depository.
Consider three hypothetical ionic solids: AX,AX2, and AX3 (each X forms X-). Each of these solids has the same Ksp value, 5.5 x10-7. You place 0.25 mol of each compound in a separate container and add enough water to bring the volume to 1.0 dm3 in each case.
Write the chemical equation for each of the solids dissolving in water.
Would you expect the concentration of each solution to be 0.25M in the compound? Explain, in some detail, why or why not.
Would you expect the concentrations of the A cations (A+, A2+, and A3+) in the three solutions to be the same? Does just knowing the stoichiometry of each reaction help you determine the answer, or do you need something else? Explain your answer in detail, but without doing any arithmetic calculations.
Of the three solids, which one would you expect to have the greatest molar solubility? Explain in detail, but without doing any arithmetic calculations.
Calculate the molar solubility of each compound.

You do some experiments and gather these data about the samples. Sample A: Phenolphthalein is colorless in the solution. Sample B: The sample was titrated with HCl until the pink color of phenolphthalein disappeared, then methyl orange was added. The solution became pink. Methyl orange changes color from pH 3.01 (red) to pH 4.4 (orange). Sample C: Equal volumes of the sample were titrated with standardized acid. Using phenolphthalein as an indicator required 15.26 mL of standardized acid to change the phenolphthalein color. The other sample required 17.90 mL for a color change using methyl orange as the indicator. Sample D: Two equal volumes of the sample were titrated with standardized HCl. Using phenolphthalein as the indicator, it took 15.00 mL of acid to reach the equivalence point; using methyl orange as the indicator required 30.00 mL HCl to achieve neutralization.
