The maximum allowable concentration of pb2+ ions in drinking water is 0.05 ppm (i.e., 0.05 g of pb2+ in 1 million grams of water

). (a) what is the pb2+ concentration of an underground water supply at equilibrium with the mineral anglesite (pbso4) (ksp = 1.6 × 10−8) ?

PbSO₄ partially dissociates in water. the balanced equation is;
                    
                       PbSO₄(s) ⇄  Pb²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)
Initial                                     -                -
Change             -X               +X           +X
Equilibrium                           X              X

Ksp           =    [Pb²⁺(aq)] [SO₄²⁻(aq)]
1.6 x 10⁻⁸  =    X * X
1.6 x 10⁻⁸  =    X²
          X    =   1.3 x 10⁻⁴ M
      
Hence the Pb²⁺ concentration in underground water is 1.3 x 10⁻⁴ M. 
[Pb²⁺]  = 1.3 x 10⁻⁴ M.
           = 1.3 x 10⁻⁴ mol / L x 207 g / mol 
           = 26.91 ppm

A student adds 5400.0mL of 0.15M NaOH to 201.2mL of 4.0M NaOH. What is the final [NaOH]?
finlep [7]

Answer:

0.287 M

Explanation:

Multiply the concentration of each solution by the volume of each (in liters) to get the moles of NaOH in that solution.

0.15 M • 5.4000 L = 0.81 mol NaOH

4.0 M • 0.2012 L = 0.80 mol NaOH

Add the mol of NaOH together to get the total --> 0.81 + 0.80 = 1.61 mol NaOH

Divide by the total volume of solution (5400.0 mL + 201.2 mL = 5,601.2 mL = 5.6012 L)

1.61 mol / 5.6012 L = 0.287 M NaOH
