- How do the concentrations of Ag+ and CrO42- in a saturated solution above 1.0 g of solid Ag2CrO4 Change when 100 g of solid Ag2CrO4 is added to the system? Explain.arrow_forwardConsider 0.0010-M solutions of these sparingly soluble solutes in equilibrium with their ions. Predict the effect on each equilibrium if a saturated solution of sodium iodide were added. Explain your prediction in each case. AgI(s) ⇌ Ag+(aq) + I−(aq) PbI2(s) ⇌ Pb2+(aq) + 2 I−(aq)arrow_forwardA volume of 50 mL of 1.8 M NH3 is mixed with an equal volume of a solution containing 0.95 g of MgCl2. What mass of NH4Cl must be added to the resulting solution to prevent the precipitation of Mg(OH)2?arrow_forward
- A saturated solution of silver oxalate. Ag2C2O4. contains 6.9 105-M C2O42 at 25 C. Calculate the Ksp of silver oxalate at that temperature, assuming that the ions do not react with water and the dissociation is complete.arrow_forwardA 3.20-L solution of 1.25 103 M Pb(NO3)2 is mixed with a 0.80-L solution of 5.0 101 M NaCl.

- Sufficient sodium cyanide, NaCN, was added to 0.015 M silver nitrate, AgNO3, to give a solution that was initially 0.108 M in cyanide ion, CN. What is the concentration of silver ion, Ag+, in this solution after Ag(CN)2 forms? The formation constant Kf for the complex ion Ag(CN)2 is 5.6 1018.arrow_forwardConsider 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_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
