Consider the following reaction at 25°C:
The [H+] is adjusted by adding a buffer that is 0.125 M in lactic acid (HLac) and 0.125 M in sodium lactate (NaLac). The pressure of both gases is 1.00 atm and [Cl-] is 0.200 M. (Kafor HLac is

- Consider the reaction BaF2(s)+SO42(aq)BaSO4(s)+2 F(aq) (a) Calculate K for the reaction. (b) Will BaSO4 precipitate if Na2SO4 is added to a saturated solution of BaF2?arrow_forwardSome barium chloride is added to a solution that contains both K2SO4 (0.050 M) and Na3PO4 (0.020 M). (a) Which begins to precipitate first: the barium sulfate or the barium phosphate? (b) The concentration of the first anion species to precipitate, either the sulfate or phosphate, decreases as the precipitate forms. What is the concentration of the first species when the second begins to precipitate?arrow_forwardSolubility is an equilibrium position, whereas Ksp is an equilibrium constant. Explain the difference.arrow_forward
- To 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_forwardA 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_forwardHow would the solubility of calcium fluoride be affected by the presence of fluoride ion from another source? What is the solubility of calcium fluoride in a saturated solution of barium fluoride? How does this compare with the value of the solubility of calcium fluoride found in Example 17.4? Is this what you expect?arrow_forward
- Because 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. What is its solubility' in grams per 100 g of water?arrow_forwardAn analytical chemist has a solution containing chloride ion, Cl. She decides to determine the amount of chloride ion in the solution by titrating 50.0 mL of this solution by 0.100 M AgNO3. As a way to indicate the endpoint of the titration, she added 1.00 g of potassium chromate, K2CrO4 (see Figure 17.5). As she slowly added the silver nitrate to the solution, a white precipitate formed. She continued the titration, with more white precipitate forming. Finally, the solution turned red, from another precipitate. The volume of the solution at this point was 60.3 mL. How many moles of chloride ion were there in the original solution? How many moles of chloride ion were there in the final solution? You may make any reasonable approximations.arrow_forwardCrystals 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_forward
- 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_forwardPhosphate ions are abundant in cells, both as the ions themselves and as important substituents on organic molecules. Most importantly, the pKa for the H2PO4 ion is 7.20, which is very close to the normal pH in the body. H2PO4(aq) + H2O() H3O+(aq) + HPO42(aq) 1. What should the ratio [HPO42]/[H2PO4] be to control the pH at 7.40?arrow_forwardThe pH of a saturated solution of nickel(II) hydroxide, Ni(OH)2, was found to be 9.20. From this, find Kp for nickel(II) hydroxide. Km =[arrow_forward
