Calculate the solubility of `CoS` in `0.1M H_(2)S` and `0.15M H_(3)O^(oplus) (K_(sp)` of `CoS = 3 xx 10^(-26))`. `(K_(1) xx K_(2) (H_(2)S) = 10^(-21))`

Answer» a. `H_(2)O +H_(2)S overset(K_(1))hArrH_(3)O^(oplus) +HS^(Θ)`
`H_(2)O +HS^(Θ) overset(K_(2))hArrH_(3)O^(oplus) +S^(2-)`
`K_(1)K_(2) = ([H_(3)O^(oplus)]^(2)[S^(2-)])/([H_(2)S])=10^(-21)`
In `0.1M H_(2)S` and `0.15M H_(3)O^(oplus)`
`[S^(2-)] = ((0.15)^(2)[S^(2-)])/(0.1) = 10^(-21)`
`:. [S^(2-)] = (10^(-22))/(0.0225) = 4 xx 10^(-21)`
`K_(sp) = [Co^(2+)] [S^(2-)] = 3 xx 10^(-26)`
`[Co^(2+)] = (3xx10^(-26))/(4xx10^(-21)) = 7 xx 10^(-6)M`

`100.0mL` of a saturated solution of `Ag_(2)SO_(4)` is added to `250.0mL` of saturated solution of `PbCrO_(4)`. Will may precipitate form and if so what? Given `K_(sp)` for `Ag_(2)SO_(4), Ag_(2)CrO_(4), PbCrO_(4)`,and `PbSO_(4)` are `1.4 xx 10^(-5), 2.4 xx 10^(-12), 2.8 xx 10^(-13)`, and `1.6 xx 10^(-8)`, respectively.

Answer» For `{:(Ag_(2)SO_(4) hArr,2Ag^(o+)+,SO_(4)^(2-),,),(,2S,S,,):}`
`K_(sp) = 4S^(3)` or `S = 3sqrt((K_(sp))/(4)) = 3sqrt((1.4 xx 10^(-5))/(4)) = 1.52 xx 10^(-2)M`
For `PbCrOhArr Pb^(2+) + CrO_(4)^(2-)`
`K_(sp) = S_(1)^(2)` or `S_(1) = sqrt(K_(sp)) = sqrt(2.8 xx 10^(-13)) = 5.29 xx 10^(-7)M`
In solution, conce. of each ion can be given as :
Thus, `[Ag^(o+)] = (2S xx 100)/(350) = (2xx1.52xx10^(-2)xx100)/(350)`
`= 0.869 xx 10^(-12)M`
`[SO_(4)^(2-)] = (S xx 100)/(350) = (1.52 xx 10^(-2) xx 100)/(350) = 0.43 xx 10^(-2)`
`[Pb^(2+)] = (S_(1)xx250)/(350) = (5.29 xx 10^(-7)xx250)/(350) = 3.78 xx 10^(-7)`
`[CrO_(4)^(2-)] = (S_(1)xx250)/(350) = (5.29xx10^(-7)xx250)/(350) = 3.78 xx 10^(-7)`
It is thus evident that
`[Ag^(o+)] = [CrO_(4)^(2-)] = (0.869 xx 10^(-2))^(2) xx (3.78 xx 10^(-7))`
`=2.85 xx 10^(-11) gt K_(sp) Ag_(2)CrO_(4)`
The product is greater than `K_(sp)` of `Ag_(2)CrO_(4)` and thus `Ag_(2)CrO_(4)` will ppt.

Determine the number of mole of AgI which may be dissolved in `1.0` litre of `1M CN^(-)` solution. `K_(SP)` for AgI and `K_(C)` for `Ag(CN)_(2)^(-)` are `1.2xx10^(-17)M^(2)` and `7.1xx10^(19)M^(-2)` respectively.

Answer» Given, `AgI(s) hArr Ag^(o+) (aq) +I^(Theta) (aq)`,
`K_(sp) = [Ag^(o+)] [I^(Theta)] = 1.2 xx 10^(-17) ..(1)`
`Ag^(o+) (aq) +2CN^(Theta) (aq) hArr [Ag(CN)_(2)]^(Theta) (aq),`
`K_(f) = ([Ag(CN)_(2)^(Theta)])/([Ag^(o+)][CN^(Theta)]^(2)) = 7.1 xx 10^(19)....(2)`
Let `x` mole of `AgI` be dissolved in `CN^(Theta)` solution then,
Now `{:(,AgI(s)+,2CN^(Theta)hArr,[Ag(CN)_(2)^(Theta)]+,I^(Theta)),("Mole before",,1,0,0),("reaction",,,,),("Mole after",,(1-2x),x,x),("reaction,,,,):}`
By equaiton (1) and (2), `K_(ep) = K_(sp) xx K_(f)`
`K_(ep) = ([Ag(CN)_(2)^(Theta)][I^(Theta)])/([CN^(Theta)]^(2)) =1.2 xx 10^(-17 xx 7.1 xx 10^(19)`
`K_(ep) = 8.52 xx 10^(2) ....(3)`
`:. K_(ep) = 8.52 xx 10^(2) = (x)/((1-2x)^(2)) = (x^(2))/((1-2x)^(2))`
or `(x)/(1-2x) = 29.2`
Thus, `x = 29.2 - 58.4x` or `x = 0.49` mol

The pH of basic buffer mixtures is given by pH `= pK_(a) + log.(["Base"])/(["Salt"])`, whereas pH of acidic buffer mixtures is given by : pH `= pK_(1) + log.(["Salt"])/(["Acid"])`. Addition of little acid or base although shows no change in pH for all practical purposes , but since the ratio `(["Base"])/(["Salt"])` for `(["Salt"])/(["Acid"])` changes, a slight decrease or increase in pH results. A solution containing 0.2 mole of dichloroacetic acid litre solution has `[H^(+)]`A. 0.05 MB. 0.025 MC. 0.10 MD. 0.005 M

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Since `CHCl_(2).COOH` is relatively strong acid having more `K_(a)`.
`{:(CHCl_(2).COONa,rarr,CHCl_(2)COO^(-),+,Na^(+)),(,,0.1,,0.1),(CHCl_(2).COOH ,hArr,CHCl_(2)COO^(-) ,+,H^(+)),(0.2,,0,,0),((0.2 - x),,(x + 0.1),,x):}`
`:. K_(a) = ([CHCl_(2)COO^(-)][H^(+)])/([CHCl_(2)COOH])` or `5 xx 10^(-2) = ([0.1 + x][x])/([0.2 - x])`
`:. x = 0.05`.
1013.

The pH of basic buffer mixtures is given by pH `= pK_(a) + log.(["Base"])/(["Salt"])`, whereas pH of acidic buffer mixtures is given by : pH `= pK_(1) + log.(["Salt"])/(["Acid"])`. Addition of little acid or base although shows no change in pH for all practical purposes , but since the ratio `(["Base"])/(["Salt"])` for `(["Salt"])/(["Acid"])` changes, a slight decrease or increase in pH results. The amount of `(NH_(4))_(2)SO_(4)` to be added to `500 mL` of 0.01 M `NH_(4)OH` solution (`pK_(a)` for `NH_(4)^(+)` is 9.26) to prepare a buffer of pH 8.26 isA. 0.05 moleB. 0.025 moleC. 0.10 moleD. 0.005 mole

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`pH = pK_(a) + log.(["Base"])/(["Salt"]) rArr ["Base"] = (0.01 xx 500)/(500) = 0.01`
`[NH_(4)^(+)] = (a xx 2)/(500)`, Let a millimole of `(NH_(4))_(2)SO_(4)` are added.
`:. [Salt] = [NH_(4)^(+)]`.
`pH = 9.26 + log [(0.01)/(2a//500)]`
`8.26 = 9.26 + log.(0.01 xx 500)/(2a) :. a = 25`
`:.` Mole of `(NH_(4))_(2)SO_(4)` added `= 0.025`.

A physician wishes to prepare a buffer solution at pH = 3.58 that efficiently resists changes in pH yet contains only small concentration of the buffering agents. Which of the following weak acids together with its sodium salt would be best to useA. m - chlorobenzoic acid `(pK_(a) = 3.98)`B. p - chlorocinnamic acid `(pK_(a) = 4.41)`C. 2, 5-dihydroxy benzoic acid `(pK_(a) = 2.97)`D. Acetoacetic acid `(pK_(a) = 3.58)`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
`pH = pK_(a) + log.(["Salt"])/(["Acid"])`. For highest buffer capacity `(["Salt"])/(["Acid"]) ~~ 1`
`pH = pK_(a) + log_(10)1`
`pH = pK_(a)`
So, `pK_(a)` should be 3.58.

`S` in `H_(2)O = sqrt(K_(sp)) = (106(-12))^(1//2) = 10^(-6)M`
`:. ("S buffer")/(S H_(2)O) = (2xx10^(-6))/(10^(-6)) = 2`.

In a `0.2M` aqueous solution of Ethylene diamine `(H_(2)NCH_(2)CH_(2)NH_(2)):` Given `K_(b_(1))=8xx10^(-5)` & `K_(b_(2))=2.7xx10^(-8)`A. `[OH^(-)]=2xx10^(-2)M`B. `[C_(2)N_(2)H_(10)^(2+)]=2.7xx10^(-8)M`C. Both (A) and (B)D. None of these

Answer» `[OH^(-)]=sqrt(K_(b_(1))xxC)=sqrt(1.6xx10^(-5))=4xx10^(-3)M`
`K_(b_(1))xxK_(b_(2))=([OH^(-)]^(2)[C_(2)H_(10)N_(2)^(2+)])/([C_(2)H_(6)H_(8)])rArr 8xx2.7xx10^(-13)=(16xx10^(-3)[C_(2)H_(10)N_(2)^(2+)])/(0.2)`
`:.[C_(2)H_(10)N_(2)^(2)]=2.7xx10^(-8)M`
