The generic metal hydroxide M(OH)2 has Ksp = 8.05×10−12. (NOTE: In this particular problem, because of the magnitude of the Ksp

and the stoichiometry of the compound, the contribution of OH− from water can be ignored. However, this may not always be the case.)
a) What is the solubility of M(OH)2 in pure water?
b) What is the solubility of M(OH)2 in a 0.202 M solution of M(NO3)2?

Answer:

a. in pure water Solubility (x) = 1.26 x 10⁻⁴M

b. in 0.202M M⁺² Solubility (x) = 9.963 x 10⁻¹²M

The large drop in solubility is consistent with the common ion effect.

Explanation:

a. Solubility in pure water

Given:       M(OH)₂ ⇄ M⁺² + 2OH⁻

            I       ---            0          0

           C      ---             x          2x

           E       ---            x           2x

Ksp = [M⁺²][OH⁻]² = (x)(2x)² = 4x³ => x = CubeRt(Ksp/4)

solubility in pure water = x = CubeRt(8.05 x 10⁻¹²/4) = 1.26 x 10⁻⁴M

b. Solubility in presence of 0.202M M⁺² as common ion.

Given:       M(OH)₂ ⇄       M⁺²      +     2OH⁻

            I       ---            0.202M              0

           C      ---                 +x                 +2x

           E       ---           0.202M + x         2x

                                   ≈ 0.202M

Ksp = [M⁺²][2x]² = (0.202)(2x)² = (0.202)(4x²) = 8.05 x 10⁻¹²

=> x = (8.05 x 10⁻¹²)/(0.202)(4) = 9.963 x 10⁻¹²M

Deuterium is the isotope of hydrogen of mass number 2, with a proton and a neutron in its nucleus. The chemistry of deuterium is
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

We know that the zero-point-energy of a C-D system is quite lower than the zero point energy of the C-H bond so the C-D bond is stronger.

Kinetic isotope effect refers to the change in the rate of reaction owing to a change of one of the atoms of the reactants by replacing it with one of its isotopes.

Since we know that the C-D bond is stronger than the C-H bond, when we replace hydrogen with deuterium in a reaction's rate determining step we experience a little lag in the rate of reaction. This is referred to as the kinetic isotope effect in physical organic chemistry.
