Chemistry

± Introduction to Solubility and the Solubility ProductConstant

Learning Goal:

To learn how to calculate the solubility from Kspandvice versa.

Consider the following equilibrium between a solid salt and itsdissolved form (ions) in a saturated solution:

CaF2(s)⇌Ca2+(aq)+2F−(aq)

At equilibrium, the ion concentrations remain constant because therate of dissolution of solid CaF2 equals the rate of the ioncrystallization. The equilibrium constant for the dissolutionreaction is

Ksp=[Ca2+][F−]2

Ksp is called the solubility product and can bedetermined experimentally by measuring thesolubility,which is the amount of compound that dissolves per unit volume ofsaturated solution.

Part A

A saturated solution of lead(II) chloride, PbCl2, was preparedby dissolving solid PbCl2 in water. The concentration of Pb2+ ionin the solution was found to be 1.62×10−2M .Calculate Ksp for PbCl2.

Express your answer numerically.
