When monovalent cation (X) binds to divalent anion (Y) it will form

Chemistry
1 answer:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]3 years ago
8 0

When a monovalent cation X binds to a divalent anion Y, a compound with the formula X_2Y would be formed.

A monovalent cation is an atom that has lost an electron. Hence, such cation has a single positive charge. A monovalent cation X will, thus, be X^+

A divalent anion is an atom that has gained two electrons. Such anion has 2 negative charge. Thus, divalent Y would be Y^2^-

Since Y is a divalent anion, it requires 2 electrons in order to successfully bind with another charged atom, a cation to be specific. Thus, two of  X^+ would be required to successfully bind  Y^2^-

   Y^2^- + X^+ + X^+ ----> X_2Y

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Ksp = 8.8x10⁻⁵

Explanation:

<em>Full question is:</em>

<em>After mixing an excess PbCl2 with a fixed amount of water, it is found that the equilibrium concentration of Pb2+ is 2.8 × 10–2 M. What is Ksp for PbCl2?</em>

<em />

When an excess of PbCl₂ is added to water, Pb²⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are produced following Ksp equilibrium:

PbCl₂(s) ⇄ Pb²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

Ksp = [Pb²⁺] [Cl⁻]²

If an excess of PbCl₂ was added, an amount of Pb²⁺ is produced (X) and twice Pb²⁺ is produced as Cl⁻ (2X):

Ksp = [X] [2X]²

Ksp = 4X³

As X is the amount of Pb²⁺ = 2.8x10⁻²M:

Ksp = 4(2.8x10⁻²)³

<h3>Ksp = 8.8x10⁻⁵</h3>
