Hey there!:

To get to the molar solubility from the Ksp, you have to think about the how Ksp is calculated, and what it means.  

For a compound that forms 2 ions, Ksp = X^2 where X is the molar solubility. For a compound that forms 3 ions, Ksp = 4X^3, where again, X is the molar solubility.  

If you calculate the molar solubilities of each of your compounds, you will see that  A2X  has the higher molar solubilty

Hope this helps!

Answer:

A₃X

Explanation:

In order to find the molar solubility (S) of a compound, we will use an ICE Chart.

A₂X

Let's consider the solution of A₂X.

     A₂X(s) ⇄ 2 A⁺(aq) + X²⁻(aq)

I                         0           0

C                     +2S        +S

E                       2S          S

The solubility product (Kps) is:

Kps = 1.5 × 10⁻⁵ = [A⁺]².[X²⁻] = (2S)².S = 4S³

S = 0.016 M

A₃X

Let's consider the solution of A₃X.

     A₃X ⇄ 3 A⁺(aq) + X³⁻(aq)

I                    0             0

C                 +3S         +S

E                   3S           S

The solubility product (Kps) is:

Kps = 1.5 × 10⁻⁵ = [A⁺]³.[X³⁻] = (3S)³.S = 27 S⁴

S = 0.027 M

A₃X has a higher molar solubility than A₂X.

What minimum volume of 0.200 m potassium iodide solution is required to completely precipitate all of the lead in 155.0 ml of a
Blababa [14]
First, we write the balanced equation for this reaction:

2KI + Pb(NO₃)₂ → 2KNO₃ + PbI₂

From this equation, we see that there are 2 moles of potassium iodide required for each mole of lead (II) nitrate. Moreover, we may use the formula:

Moles = volume (in L) * molarity

We find the molar relation ship for KI : Pb(NO₃)₂ to be 2 : 1. So:

M₁V₁ = 2M₂V₂

V₁ = 2M₂V₂/M₁
V₁ = 2 * 0.112 * 0.155 / 0.2
V₁ = 0.1736 L


The volume required is 173.6 mL

1. Which of the following parts allow different activities of the cell to happen? A cytoplasm C vacuole B. lysosome D. vesicle 2
Anna35 [415]

Answer: A. Cytoplasm

Explanation: Cytoplasm is a jelly, like material that fills up the remaining space in the cell. It is also responsible in making the shape of the cell. Without it, other parts of the cells or the organelles cannot make its function because it serves as the hallway of the transportation of the nutrients needed by each cell.
