The solubility of AgBr in water is 1.28 × 10-5 mol/dm3 at 298 K. Calculate the solubility product of AgBr at the same temperature.

Answer»

Given : S = 1.28 × 10-5 mol dm-3; Ksp = ?

AgBr dissociates as,

AgBr ⇋ \(Ag^+_{(aq)}\)\(Br^-_{(aq)}\)

Ksp = [Ag+] [Br-]

As the solubility of AgBr in water is 1.28 × 10-5 moles/dm3.

[Ag+] = [Br-] = 1.28 x 10-5 mol dm3

∴ Ksp = [1.28 × 10-5] [1.28 × 10-5]

= 1.638 × 10-10

∴ Solubility product of AgBr = 1.638 × 10-10
