Homework Problems 37.1 In the Le Chatelier Principle lab, you studied the following colorful complex-ion equilibrium that took place in a methanol solution: CoCl42-(methanol) + 6 H2O(methanol) ↔ Co(H2O)62+(methanol) + 4 Cl-(methanol) One of the "stresses" you applied to this equilibrium was small amounts of HCl. Why was additional HCl a "stress" and specifically what was the "Common Ion" in this case? 37.2 Calculate the molar solubility (S) and gram solubility (μg/L) of PbSO4 in distilled water by solving the following ICE problem: PbSO4(s) ↔ Pb2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) Ksp = 1.96 x 10-8 I ~ 0.00 M 0.00 M C + S + S E S S 37.3 Calculate the molar solubility (S) and gram solubility (μg/L) of PbSO4 in 0.100 M Na2SO4 by solving the following ICE problem: PbSO4(s) ↔ Pb2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) Ksp = 1.96 x 10-8 I ~ 0.00 M 0.100 M C + S + S E S S 37.4 Compare the solubilities you calculated in 37.2 and 37.3. Explain why PbSO4 is so much more soluble in distilled water. 37.5 Calculate the molar and gram solubility (μg/L) of AgCl in a 0.050 M KCl solution? Ksp for AgCl is 1.00 x 10-10 37.6 Calculate the molar and gram solubility (mg/L) of Ag2CrO4 in 0.010 M K2CrO4 solution. Ksp for Ag2CrO4 = 1.12 x 10-12 Answers: Click and drag in the space below 37.1 HCl is a strong acid and completely ionizes. So, you were really adding H+ and Cl- ions to the equilibrium mixture. H+ doesn't appear in the equilibrium reaction and in this case, has no effect. However, by adding HCl, you're also adding Cl- ions and these do appear in the equilibrium reaction. Thus, Cl- is considered a "common ion" (...an ion that your addition of HCl and the equilibrium reaction have in common.) The additional Cl- ions cause the reaction to shift left in favor of the blue CoCl42- reactant. 37.2 Molar Solubility = 1.40 x 10-4 moles/Liter Gram Solubility = 42459 μg/L 37.3 Molar Solubility = 1.96 x 10-7 moles/Liter Gram Solubility = 59.4 μg/L 37.4 PbSO4 is more soluble in distilled water since significant amounts of both Pb2+ and SO42- must be produced to reach equilibrium. (They both started at zero). However, in problem 37.3, SO42- has a "head start" and SO42- is the common ion. Consequently, the equilibrium in 37.3 doesn't have to shift as far to the right to reach equilibrium levels and less of the solid dissolves. 37.5 Molar Solubility = 2.00 x 10-9 moles/Liter Gram Solubility = 0.287 μg/L 37.6 Molar Solubility = 5.29 x 10-6 moles/Liter Gram Solubility = 1.76 mg/L |

Selective Precipitation (Dr. Dave) |
Objectives 1. Use the associated Ksp values to determine the order solids precipitate from a solution that contains a mixture of metal cations 2. Determine anion threshold concentration required for a solid to precipitate. Homework Problems 39.1 A solution contains both Cl⁻ ions (0.050 M) and I⁻ ions (0.050 M). Next a concentrated Cu+ solution is slowly added to to precipitate CuCl and CuI sequentially. a. Use the Ksp values below to determine the copper ion thresholds required to precipitate CuCl and CuI. CuCl Ksp = 1.0 × 10-6 CuI Ksp = 5.1 × 10-12 b. Use your answers from part "a" to determine which of the two precipitates forms first. c. How can the Ksp values be used to arrange ions in order of precipitation and how does this relate to the idea of "solubility?" 39.2 A solution contains equal concentrations of of I-, Br-, Cl- and CN-. If concentrated, aqueous AgNO3 is slowly added, what is the order of precipitation? AgI Ksp = 8.0 x 10-17 AgCl Ksp = 1.77 x 10-10 AgCN Ksp = 1.6 x 10-14 AgBr Ksp = 7.7 x 10-13 39.3 (Source) Concentrated BaCl2 is slowly added to a solution that is 1.0 x 10-4 M in sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) and 1.0 x 10-4 M in sodium selenate, Na2SeO4. a. Which anion precipitates out of solution first? b. What percentage of the first ion has precipitated when the second anion begins to precipitate? BaSO4 Ksp = 1.1 x 10-10 BaSeO4 Ksp = 2.8 x 10-11. (Assume no volume change upon the addition of BaCl2) 39.4 (Source) A solution containing Ni2+ (0.10 M) and Cu2+ (0.10 M) are separated using selective precipitation by the addition of solid Na2CO3. How much of the first precipitated ion (in %) remains at the point when the second ion begins to precipitate? NiCO3 Ksp = 1.4 x 10-7 CuCO3 Ksp = 2.5 x 10-10 (Assume no volume change upon the addition of Na2CO3) Answers: Click and drag in the space below 39.1 a. CuCl(s) [Cu+]threshold = 2.0 x 10-5 M CuI(s) [Cu+]threshold = 1.02 x 10-10 M b. The CuI threshold is lower and therefore reached first. CuI precipitates before CuCl c. As long as the solid salts are of the same form, Ksp values can be used to predict the order of precipitation. In this case, both salts are 1 : 1 salts (i.e. 1 cation to 1 anion) and the salt with the small Ksp value will precipitate first (CuI). You would need to calculate solubility values when comparing 1:1 salts with other salts having different cation to anion ratios. For example comparing 1:1 CuOH to 1 : 2 Ca(OH)2 would require an ICE solubility problem for each salt before deciding which precipitated out of solution first. 39.2 These are all 1:1 salts and their Ksp values can be used to order them from least soluble (first to precipitate) to most soluble (last to precipitate. First to ppt (least soluble) AgI ... AgCN ... AgBr ... AgCl Last to ppt (most soluble) 39.3 & 39.4 Solutions available here. |
