<u>larger is the value of </u>
<u> the higher will the solubility of solid in water.</u>
What is called compound?
- In chemistry, a compound is a substance made up of two or more different chemical elements combined in a fixed ratio.
- When the elements come together, they react with each other and form chemical bonds that are difficult to break.
- These bonds form as a result of sharing or exchanging electrons between atoms.
The equation for the dissociation of a solid MX in water is given below
MX(s) ⇄ Mⁿ⁺(aq) + Xⁿ⁻ (aq)
Assume s be the solubility of MX in pure water, then the equilibrium concentrations of ions are
[ Mⁿ⁺] = s
[ Xⁿ⁻ ] = s
The expression for the solubility product constant () is as follows
= [ Mⁿ⁺] [ Xⁿ⁻ ]
= s²
That is, larger is the value of the higher will the solubility of solid in water.

<span>Each atom in an ionic compound tends either to empty or complete the shell to 8 electrons. So when the number of electrons on the external shell is near 8 , the atom tends to attract electrons to complete the shell giving a positive ion called anion
Conversely when the number of electrons is small the atom gives these electrons to form a positive ion called a cation</span>
The concentration of the original calcium ions is 0.005 M
<h3>What is concentration?</h3>
The term concentration has to do with the amount of substance in solution. We know that the concentration can be measured in a lot of units such as mole/litre, grams per litre, percentage and so on.
As such we have the equation;
Ca^2+(aq) + (NH4)2CrO4(aq) --------> CaCrO4(s) + 2NH4^+(aq)
Number of moles of the precipitate = 346.7 * 10^-3 g/156 g/mol
= 0.0022 moles
Now;
1 mole of Ca^2+ produces 1 mole of CaCrO4 hence 0.0022 moles of CaCrO4 was produced by 0.0022 moles of CaCrO4.
Given that the volume of the solution is 0.440 L, the concentration of the solution is; 0.0022 moles/0.440 L
= 0.005 M
