When the value of Ksp = 3.83 x 10^-11 (should be given - missing in your Q)
So, according to the balanced equation of the reaction:
and by using ICE table:
Ag2CrO4(s) → 2Ag+ (Aq) + CrO4^2-(aq)
initial 0 0
change +2X +X
Equ 2X X
∴ Ksp = [Ag+]^2[CrO42-]
so by substitution:
∴ 3.83 x 10^-11 = (2X)^2* X
3.83 x 10^-11 = 4 X^3
∴X = 2.1 x 10^-4
∴[CrO42-] = X = 2.1 x 10^-4 M
[Ag+] = 2X = 2 * (2.1 x 10^-4)
= 4.2 x 10^-4 M
when we comparing with the actual concentration of [Ag+] and [CrO42-]
when moles Ag+ = molarity * volume
= 0.004 m * 0.005L
= 2 x 10^-5 moles
[Ag+] = moles / total volume
= 2 x 10^-5 / 0.01L
= 0.002 M
moles CrO42- = molarity * volume
= 0.0024 m * 0.005 L
= 1.2 x 10^-5 mol
∴[CrO42-] = moles / total volume
= (1.2 x 10^-5)mol / 0.01 L
= 0.0012 M
by comparing this values with the max concentration that is saturation in the solution
and when the 2 values of ions concentration are >>> than the max values o the concentrations that are will be saturated.
∴ the excess will precipitate out
Scientific questions and hypotheses come up frequently while one is engaged in investigating a scientific phenomenon such as natural geological phenomena as may occur in geological mapping in the field. For example, there may be a question does this canyon or deeply incised valley which is quite straight follow a weakness in the earth's crust like a major fault or the direction of bedding in well bedded sedimentary rocks. In a particular topographic area, some hypotheses which may be developed is that valleys follow geological structure whereas ridges follow resistant rocks like quartzites or quartz sandstones or in the ocean, points or capes may represent resistant quartz sandstones and bays may represent weak soft shales recessively weathering

1 mole of a substance contains 6.022x10^23 "units" of that substance.
So 0.187 mol of Na+ is 1.13x10^23 ions (6.022x10^23 x 0.187).
