If the solubility product of CuS is 6 xx 10^(-16) , calculate the maximum molarity of CuS in aqueoussolution.

Answer»

SOLUTION :MAXIMUM molarity of CuS in aqueous solution = Solubility of CuS in mol `L^(-1)`
If S is the solubility of CuS in mol `L^(-1)`, then
`CuS IFF Cu^(2+)(s) + S^(2-)(s)`
` therefore S^2=6 xx 10^(-16) " or" S = sqrt(6 xx 10^(-16))`
Hence, solubility = `2.45 xx 10^(-8 )"mo "L^(-1)`
