Calculate the solubility of AgCN in a buffer solution of pH 3*00. K_(sp) for AgCN is 2.2xx10^(-16)and K_(a) forHCN is 6.2xx10^(-12).

Answer»

Solution :`AgCN rarr AG^(+) CN^(-)`
pH = 3.0means `[H^(+)] = 10^(-3) M `
`CN^(-)` ions now combine with the `H^(+)` ion to form HCN but `[H^(+)]` remains almost CONSTANT because we have buffer solution . Now
`HCN hArr H^(+) + CN^(-)`
`K_(a) = ([H^(+)][CN^(-)])/([HCN]) or ([HCN])/([CN^(-)]) = ([H^(+)])/(K_(a)) = (10^(-3))/(6.2xx10^(-10)) = 1.6 xx 10^(6) ` ..(i)
Suppose the solubility in the buffer solution is 'x' mol `L^(-1)`. Then
`x=[Ag^(+)]=[CN^(-)]+ [HCN] ~= [HCN]`
(as from eqn. (i) `[CN^(-)] = [ HCN]//(1.6xx10^(6))` is negligible in comparison to [HCN])
`:. [CN^(-)] = ([HCN])/(1.6xx10^(6))`
`K_(sp) = [ Ag^(+)][CN^(-)]=x xx (x)/(1.6xx10^(6))=2.2xx10^(-16)` (Given)
or `x^(2) = 3.52 xx 10^(-10)"" x=1.9xx10^(-5) "mol" L^(-1)`

Answer»

SOLUTION :(i)`AgCl(s) hArr Ag^(+)(aq)+Cl^(-)(aq)`
`K_(sp)=1.8xx10^(-10)`
Let solubility be s moles per litre. Then the CONCENTRATION of various species at equilibrium are :
`[Ag^+]=s, [Cl^-]=s`
`K_(sp)=[Ag^+][Cl^-]=sxxs`
`1.8xx10^(-10)=s^2`
`therefore s=(1.8xx10^(-10))^(1//2) =1.34xx10^(-5) "mol L"^(-1)`
Solubility in g `L^(-1)=1.34xx10^(-5)xx143.5`
`=1.92xx10^(-3) gL^(-1)`
`[Ag^+]=s=1.34xx10^(-5) "mol L"^(-1)`
`[Cl^-]=s=1.34xx10^(-5) "mol L"^(-1)`
(ii)For `Fe(OH)_3 : K_(sp)=1.0xx10^(-38)`
`Fe(OH)_3 hArr Fe^(3+) + 3OH^-`
If solubility is s , then
`[Fe^(3+)]=s, [OH^-]=3s`
`K_(sp)=[Fe^(3+)] [OH^-]^3`
`1.0xx10^(-38)=sxx(3s)^3=27s^4`
`27s^4=1.0xx10^(-38)`
`s^4=(1.0xx10^(-38))/27`
or `s=((1.0xx10^(-38))/27)^(1//4)`
`=1.39xx10^(-10) "mol L"^(-1)`
Solubility in g `L^(-1) =1.39xx10^(-10)xx106.5`
`=1.48xx10^(-8) g L^(-1)`
`[Fe^(3+)]=s=1.39xx10^(-10) "mol L"^(-1)`
`[OH^-]=3s=3xx1.39xx10^(-10)`
`=4.17xx10^(-10) "mol L"^(-1)`
(iii)For `Ag_2SO_4 : K_(sp)=1.4xx10^(-5)`
`Ag_2SO_4 hArr 2Ag^(+) + SO_4^(2-)`
If solubility is s , then
`[Ag^+]=2s, [SO_4^(2-)]=s`
`K_(sp)=[Ag^+]^2 [SO_4^(2-)]`
`1.4xx10^(-5) =(2s)^2 (s)`
`1.4xx10^(-5)=4s^3`
or `s^3=(1.4xx10^(-5))/4`
`s=((1.4xx10^(-5))/4)^(1//3)`
`=1.52xx10^(-2) "mol L"^(-1)`
Solubility in `gL^(-1) =1.52xx10^(-2) xx312`
`=4.74 g L^(-1)`
`[Ag^+]=2s=2 xx 1.52xx10^(-2)`
`=3.04xx10^(-2) "mol L"^(-1)`
`[SO_4^(2-)]=s=1.52xx10^(-2) "mol L"^(-1)`
(iv)For `Hg_2Br_2 , K_(sp) = 5.6xx10^(-23)`
`Hg_2Br_2 hArr Hg_2^(2+)+ 2Br^-`
If solubility is s, then
`[Hg_2^(2-)]=s, Br^(-)=2s`
`K_(sp)=(s)(2s)^2`
`5.6xx10^(-23)=4s^3`
or `4s^3 =5.6xx10^(-23)`
`s=((5.6xx10^(-23))/4)^(1//3)`
=`2.41xx10^(-8) "mol L"^(-1)`
Solubility in g `L^(-1) = 2.41xx10^(-8) xx360.4`
`=8.68xx10^(-6) gL^(-1)`
`[Hg_2^(2+)]=2.41xx10^(-8)`
`[Br^-]=2xx2.41xx10^(-8)`
`=4.82xx10^(-8)` M

`2xx0.1+x`
`K_(SP)=[Ag^(+)]^(2)[CrO_(4)^(2-)]`
`1XX10^(-12)=(2xx0.1)^(2)[CrO_(4)^(2-)]`
`[CrO_(4)^(2-)]=(1xx10^(-12))/((2xx0.1)^(2))=(1xx10^(-12))/0.04=0.025xx10^(-10)`

`:. K_(sp)=(2S)^(2)(3s)^(3) = 108 s^(5)`
`s=(K_(AP)/108)^(1//5)=(1.1xx10^(-23)//108)^(1//5)`
`log s = (1)/(5)(log 1.1 + log 10^(-23)-log 108 ) = (1)/(5) (0.0414-23-2.0334)`
or `log s = - 4.9984 = bar(5) .0016 :. s= 10^(-5) "mol" L^(-1)`

`{:(A_2X_(3(s)) to ,2A_((aq))^(3+)+, 3X_((aq))^(2-)),("Conc. according to stoichiometry:","2S M","3S M"):}`
`therefore K_(SP)=[A^(3+)]^2 + [X^(2-)]^3 =(2S)^2 (3S)^3`
`therefore K_(sp) =108 S^5 =1.1xx10^(-23)`
`therefore 108 S^5 =111.0 xx 10^(-25)`
`therefore S=(111xx10^(-25))^(1/5) =2.5645xx10^(-5)` M
`approx 2.56xx 10^(-5)` M
Here, `(111xx10^(-25))^(1/5) =1/5 LOG (111xx10^(-25))`
`=1/5 log 111 + 1/5 log 10^(-25)`
`=1/5 (2.0453)+1/5(-25)`
=0.4090 + (-5)
Antilog of `=2.5645xx10^(-5)`

Answer»

Solution :SUPPOSE the simultaneous solubility of AgCNS and AgBr in water are a and b respectively.
`{:(AgCNS hArr Ag^(+) + CNS^(-) , AgBr hArr Ag^(+) + Br^(-)),("aa","bb"):}`
Thus, `[Ag^(+)] = a+b , [ CNS^(-)] = a, [Br^(-) ] = b `
`K_(sp) ` of AgCNS `= [Ag^(+)] [ CNS^(-)]= a (a+b)`
`:. a(a+b) = 5 xx 10^(-12) " " ...(i)`
`K_(sp) "of" AgBr = [Ag^(+)][Br^(-)]=b (a+b)`

Calculate the pressure exerted by one mole of methane in a 450 mL container at 25^@C using van der Waals' equation. What pressure will be predicted by ideal gas equation ? (Given : a = 2.253 " atm " L^2mol^(-2), b = 0.0428 L mol^(-2), R =0.0821 L " atm " K^(-1) mol^(_1))

Answer»

<P>

Solution :Using van der WAALS. equation : For ONE mole of a gas, van der Waals. equation can be written as
`(p + a/V_2) (v - b) = RT " or " P= (RT)/(V-b) - a/V_2`
Substituting `a = 2.253 " atm " L_2mol^(-2), b = 0.0428 L mol^(-1)`,
`V= 450/1000 = 0.450 L, T = 25 + 273 = 298 K` and
`R = 0.0821 L " atm " K^(-1) mol^(-1)`,
we have
`P = (0.0821 xx 298)/(0.450-0.0428)- (2.253)/((0.450)^2)" or " P = 0.0428` atm
Using ideal gas equation : `PV = nRT " or " P =(nRT)/V`
Substituting, `n = 1, R = 0.0821 L " atm " K^(-1) mol^(-1)`,
`T = 298 K " and " V = 0.450 L`, we have
`P= (1 xx 0.0821 xx 298)/(0.450) = 54.4` atm
Hence, the PRESSURE of methane under given conditions is 48.96 atm. Ideal gas equation predicts the pressure 54.4 atm under similar conditions.
