Answer:
a. 1.7 × 10⁻⁴ mol·L⁻¹; b. 5.5 × 10⁻⁹ mol·L⁻¹
c. 2.3 × 10⁻⁴ mol·L⁻¹; 5.5 × 10⁻⁸ mol·L⁻¹
Explanation:
a. Silver iodate
Let s = the molar solubility.
AgIO₃(s) ⇌ Ag⁺(aq) + IO₃⁻(aq); Ksp = 3.0 × 10⁻⁸
E/mol·L⁻¹: s s
b. Barium sulfate
BaSO₄(s) ⇌ Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq); Ksp = 1.1 × 10⁻¹⁰
I/mol·L⁻¹: 0.02 0
C/mol·L⁻¹: +s +s
E/mol·L⁻¹: 0.02 + s s
