A)
Given the two reactions
1) H2S<--> HS- + H+, K1= 9.21x10^-8 and
2) HS- <--> S2- + H+, K2=1.59x10^-19,
what is the equillibrium constant Kfinal for the following reaction?
S2- + 2H+ <--> H2S
B)
Given the two reactions
3) PbCl2 <--> Pb2+ + 2Cl-, K3= 1.87x10^-10, and
4) AgCl <--> Ag+ + Cl-, K4= 1.11x10^4,
what is the equillibrium constant Kfinal for the following reaction?
PbCl2 + 2Ag+ <--> 2AgCl + Pb2+
A)
Ka = [H2S]/[H+]^2[S2-]
Invert (1) and (2)
this is equally to
1/K1 and 1/K2 (since we invert it, we need to ^-1 each term)
Ka = 1/K2*1/K1 = K2/K1 = 1/(9.21*10^-8)*1/(1.59*10^-19) = 6.828782*10^25
Ka = 6.828782*10^25; makes sense since H2S is a weak acid, it is storngly favoured to H2S instead of it sionzied states
B)
K = [Pb+2]/[Ag+]^2
ignore PbCl2 and AgCl since those are acids
then
we need Ag+ in the left, and two the 2nd power so... 1/K4 then (1/K4)^2
therefore
K = K3*(1/K4)^2 = (1.87*10^-10)/(1.11*10^4) =1.6846847*10^-14
K = 1.6846847*10^-14
