Explanation / Answer

a) AgCl(s) <=> Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

DG(rxn) = DGf(products) - DGf(reactants)

= DGf(Ag+) + DGf(Cl-) - DGf(AgCl)

= 77.1 + (-131.2) - (-109.8)

= 55.7 kJ/mol


(b) Ksp = exp(-DG(rxn)/RT))

= exp(-55.7 x 1000/(8.314 x 298.15)

= 1.74 x 10^(-10) = 1.7 x 10^(-10)


(c) AgBr(s) <=> Ag+(aq) + Br-(aq)

DG(rxn) = DGf(products) - DGf(reactants)

= DGf(Ag+) + DGf(Br-) - DGf(AgBr)

= 77.1 + (-104) - (-96.9)

= 70.0 kJ/mol


(d) Ksp = exp(-DG(rxn)/RT))

= exp(-70.0 x 1000/(8.314 x 298.15)

= 5.44 x 10^(-13) = 5.4 x 10^(-13)
