The solubility product, ksp of PbBr₂ is 2.102 × 10⁻⁶

<h3>What is solubility?</h3>

The solubility of a solute is defined as the maximum amount of that solute that can be dissolved in a known quantity of solvent at a given temperature.

<h3>What is a solubility product? </h3>

Some salts are sparingly soluble in a solvent. For them, we calculate the solubility product.

It is an equilibrium constant that defines the relationship between a solid and its respective ions in an aqueous solution in equilibrium.

The greater the solubility product, the greater the solubility and vice versa.

Here, the solubility of PbBr₂ = 2.96 g/l

Molar solubility of  PbBr₂ = \frac{2.96}{molar mass of PbBr_2} = 2.96/367 = 8.07 × 10⁻³

At equilibrium,

PbBr_2\rightarrow Pb^{2+} + 2Br^-

1 mole of PbBr2 dissociates into 1 mole of Pb²⁺ ions and 2 moles of Br⁻

Let the molar concentration of Pb²⁺ be x, then the molar concentration of Br⁻ is 2x

Ksp = x.(2x)²

       = 4x³

Substitute, x = 8.07 × 10⁻³

Ksp = 4 (8.07 × 10⁻³)³

      = 2.102 × 10⁻⁶

Thus, The ksp of PbBr₂ is 2.102 × 10⁻⁶

Making the simplistic assumption that the dissolved NaCl(s) does not affect the volume of the solvent water, determine the const
shtirl [24]

Answer:

  • m = 1,000/58.5
  • b = - 1,000 / 58.5

1) Variables

  • molarity: M
  • density of the solution: d
  • moles of NaCl: n₁
  • mass of NaCl: m₁
  • molar mass of NaCl: MM₁
  • total volume in liters: Vt
  • Volume of water in mililiters: V₂
  • mass of water: m₂

2) Density of the solution: mass in grams / volume in mililiters

  • d = [m₁ + m₂] / (1000Vt)

3) Mass of NaCl: m₁

    Number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

    ⇒ mass in grams = number of moles × molar mass

        m₁ = n₁ × MM₁


4) Number of moles of NaCl: n₁

   Molarity = number of moles / Volume of solution in liters

   M = n₁ / Vt

   ⇒ n₁ = M × Vt


5) Substitue in the equation of m₁:

   m₁ = M × Vt × MM₁


6) Substitute in the equation of density:

    d = [M × Vt × MM₁ + m₂] / (1000Vt)


7) Simplify and solve for M

  • d = M × Vt × MM₁ / (1000Vt) + m₂/ (1000Vt)
  • d = M × MM₁ / (1000) + m₂/ (1000Vt)

Making the simplistic assumption that the dissolved NaCl(s) does not affect the volume of the solvent water means 1000Vt = V₂  

  • d = M × MM₁ / (1000) + m₂/ V₂

        m₂/ V₂ is the density of water: 1.00 g/mL

  • d = M × MM₁ / (1000) + 1.00 g/mL
  • M × MM₁ / (1000) = d - 1.00 g/mL
  • M = [1,000/MM₁] d - 1,000/ MM₁

8) Substituting MM₁ = 58.5 g/mol

  • M = [1,000/58.5] d - [1,000/ 58.5]

Comparing with the equation Molarity = m×density + b, you obtain:

  • m = 1,000/58.5
  • b = - 1,000/58.5

finlep [7]

Answer:

Se detailed explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both magnesium and calcium ions are in group IIA, we can review the following similar properties:

- Since both calcium and magnesium are in group IIA they have two valence electrons, it means that the both of them have two electrons at their outer shells.

- They are highly soluble in water when forming ionic bonds with nonmetals such as those belonging to halogens and oxygen's family.

- Calcium has 18 electrons and magnesium 10 which are two less than the total protons (20 and 12 respectively) since the both of them have lost two electrons due their ionized form.

- Their electron configurations are:

Ca^{20}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^3,3p^6,4s^2\\\\Mg^{12}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^2

It means that the both of them are at the s region since it is the last subshell at which their electrons are.

Best regards.
