A generic salt, AB2AB2, has a molar mass of 313313 g/mol and a solubility of 1.201.20 g/L at 25 °C.
AB2(s)↽−−⇀A2+(aq)+2B−(aq)AB2(s)↽−−⇀A2+(aq)+2B−(aq)
What is the ?spKsp of this salt at 25 °C?
?sp=
The solubility of salt is 1.20 g/L at 25°C
The molar mass of salt (AB2) = 313 g/mol
The solubility of salt in mol/L unit = (The solubility of AB2 in g/L)/(molar mass of AB2)
Solubility of salt in mol/L = (1.20 g/L)/(313 g/mol)
= 3.83×10-3 mol/L
The solubility of AB2 salt is 3.83×10-3 M.
AB2(s) <==> A+2(aq) + 2B-(aq)
- s 2s
Where s is the solubility of salt.
s = 3.83×10-3 M
Ksp = [A+2][B-]2
Ksp = (s)(2s)2
Ksp = 4s3
Ksp = 4×(3.83×10-3)3
Ksp = 224.7×10-9
Ksp = 2.247×10-7
( Ksp of this salt at 25°C is 2.247×10-7 )
