The solubility of `CuS` in pure water at `25^(@)C` is `3.3 xx 10^(-4)g L^(-1)`. Calculate `K_(sp)` of `CuS`. The accurate value of `K_(sp)` of `CuS` was found to be `8.5 xx 10^(-36)` at `25^(@)C`. |
Answer» c. `CuS rarr Cu^(2+) +S^(2-)` `S = (3.3 xx 10^(-4)gL^(-1))/(95.6g mol^(-1)) = 3.5 xx 10^(-6)M`. Apparent `K_(sp) = (3.5 xx 10^(-6))^(2) = 1.2 xx 10^(-11)`. |
