Answer: -
Concentration of PbI₂ = 1.5 x 10⁻³ M
PbI₂ dissociates in water as
PbI₂ ⇄ Pb²⁺ + 2 I⁻
So PbI₂ releases two times the amount of I⁻ as it's own concentration when saturated.
Thus the molar concentration of iodide ion in a saturated PbI₂ solution = [ I⁻] =
= 1.5 x 10⁻³ x 2 M
= 3 x 10⁻³ M
PbI₂ releases the same amount of Pb²⁺ as it's own concentration when saturated.
[Pb²⁺] = 1.5 x 10⁻³ M
So solubility product for PbI₂
Ksp = [Pb²⁺] x [ I⁻]²
=1.5 x 10⁻³ x (3 x 10⁻³)²
= 4.5 x 10⁻⁹
