Question

1) When 25.0 mL of a 4.14×10-4 M silver nitrate solution is combined with 25.0 mL of a 3.60×10-5 M potassium iodide solution does a precipitate form? (yes or no) For these conditions the Reaction Quotient, Q, is equal to .

2) When 25.0 mL of a 9.51×10-4 M aluminum bromide solution is combined with 18.0 mL of a 8.46×10-4 M potassium phosphate solution does a precipitate form? (yes or no) For these conditions the Reaction Quotient, Q, is equal to .

3) When 18.0 mL of a 5.76×10-4 M potassium sulfide solution is combined with 12.0 mL of a 7.72×10-4 M cobalt(II) fluoride solution does a precipitate form? (yes or no) For these conditions the Reaction Quotient, Q, is equal to .

Explanation / Answer

1)AgNO3 = 25.0 of 4.14x10^-4M

KI = 25.0ml of 3.60x10^-5M

Total volume= 25.0+25.0= 50.0ml

after mixing

[AgNO3] = 4.14x10^-4x25.0/50.0=2.07x10^-4M

[KI] = 3.60x10^-5x25.0/50.0=1.8x10^-5M

AgNO3 +KI----------- AgI + KNO3

AgI---------------- Ag+ + I-

Q= [Ag+][I-]

Q= 2.07x10^-4x1.8x10^-5

Q= 3.726x10^-9

Ksp of AgI = 8.52x10^-17

Q>Ksp

Yes. precipitate wil be formed.

2) AlBr3 = 25.0ml of 9.51x10^-4M

K3PO4 = 18.0ml of 8.46x10^-4M

total volume = 25.0+18.0= 43.0mL

after mixing

[AlBr3]= 9.51x10^-4x25.0/43.0 = 5.529x10^-4M

[K3PO4] = 8.46x10^-4x18.0/43.0 =3.54x10^-4M

AlBr3 + K3PO4--------- AlPO4 + 3 KBr

AlPO4--------------- Al+3 + PO4-3

Q= [Al+3][PO4-3]

Q= 5.529x10^-4x3.54x10^-4 = 19.57x10^-8

Q= 1.96x10^-7

Ksp of AlPO4=9,84x10^-21

Q>Ksp

yes. precipitate will be formed.

the third problem is also similar manner.
