Question

You add an excess of Ca(OH)2to water maintained at a particular temperature, stir until the solution is saturated, filter, then determine the [OH?] in the solution by titration with acid. Titration of25mL of the calcium hydroxide solution to the endpoint requires10.63mL of 0.080M HCl solution. Part A What is the millimolar quantiy of OH?in the25mL of solution?
Part B What are the concentrations of Ca2+and OH??
Part C What is the solubility of Ca(OH)2under these conditions? (Expressed as g/dL). Give your answer to three significant figures.
Part D What is the Kspfor Ca(OH)2under these conditions?

Explanation / Answer

10.63*0.08 = 2*25*M

M = 0.017 M Ca(OH)2

(a) OH- = 2*0.017*25 = 0.8504 miliMoles of OH-

(b) [Ca2+] = 0.017 M

[OH-] = 0.034 M

(c) solubility = 74*0.017 = 1.258 g/L

(d) Ksp = [Ca]*[OH-]^2 = 0.017*0.034^2 = 1.965E-5.
