As with many of the previous sections, Solubility equilibria use principles that you have used before. This section deals with solubility, the amount of a salt that can be dissolved in water. Your textbook points out that the solubiity of a salt is variable, The solubility product (“Km”) is constant (at a given temperature). The solubility equilibrium expression is set up as any other. For example, the equilibrium expression for the dissolution of Ag2S in water is 2S(s) 2Ag’(aq) + Ag S(aq) K = 1.6 x 1O ber that the pure solid, AgS, is noncluded i: the equffibrium- expresalon.

Recall that Le Chateier’s principle predicts that adding a common ion to the ( solution shifts the equilibrium to the left insolubility equations. In other words adding a common-ion-(that-doesnt react with other species in the solution) redücés the solubility. ,1 328 Chapter 15 Applications of Aqueous Equilibria Example 15.6 D Common Ion Effect Calculate the solubility of SrF2 (K = 7.9 x 10’°) in a. pure water3)1 b. 0.100 M Sr(N0 c, 0.400MNaF Solution The reaction of interest is 1(s) + 2F’(aq) SrF Sr(aq) = [Sr29[F] a.

Problems 44-62 at the end of this study chapter cover material from this section. 15.7 Predpitation and Qualitative Analysis When you finish this study section you will be able to: • determine whether the mixing of two solutions will produce a predpiate, and • calculate the concentration of each ion in a solution in which a precipitate is produced. Chapter 15 Applications of Aqueous Equilibria 329 This section asks the musical question,9“If two solutions are mixed, will a precipitate form?” Then, “If it forms, what will be the concentration of each ion an solution I (JUl l.CA.LUUUI..

The general strategy involves assuming that because K, is so low if a precipitate forms, it will do so quantitatively We can then use the equilibnum expression involving the solubility of the salt (with a common ion) to solve for the equilibrium concentration of each ion. Let’s illustrate this with the next example.

A maximumsolubility of 2140ppmAg was obtained at 250°Cin 4.1m NaHSconcentration under PH 2Sof 29.1 atm. From these solubility data, reactions to form silver sulfide complexes are estimated as follows: Ag2S + H2S = Ag2S(H2S), Ag2S + H2S + HS = Ag2S(H2S) (HS)-, Ag2S + H2S + 2HS = Ag2S (H2S) (HS)22 and Ag2S + 2HS = Ag2S (HS)22-. The equilibrium constants for these reactions are given in Table 2. Assuming that such silver sulfide complexes as above are in an ore solution , Ag2S (argentite or acanthite) is precipitated in response to changes of temperature, pH and total sulfur concentration (ES). Decrease of pH and ES is more effective than that of temperature. Silver sulfide complexes are more important than silver chloride complexes in ore solution of high ES, neutral to slightly alkaline pH and geologically reasonable chloride concentrations. INTRODUCTION to the experimental study by Seward (1973), Thermochemical data for aqueous metal bisulfide complexes are significant for the trans species at elevated temperatures and pressures port of gold in ore solutions under epithermal are indispensable for understanding transport of conditions, even if chloride complexes have the metals in hydrothermal solution.

  • An Investigation of the Crystal Growth of Heavy Sulfides in Supercritical
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF LEROY CRAWFORD LEWIS for the Ph. D. (Name) (Degree) in CHEMISTRY presented on (Major) (Date) Title: AN INVESTIGATION OF THE CRYSTAL GROWTH OF HEAVY SULFIDES IN SUPERCRITICAL HYDROGEN SULFIDE Abstract approved Redacted for privacy Dr. WilliarriIJ. Fredericks Solubility studies on the heavy metal sulfides in liquid hydrogen sulfide at room temperature were carried out using the isopiestic method. The results were compared with earlier work and with a theoretical result based on Raoult's Law. A relative order for the solubilities of sulfur and the sulfides of tin, lead, mercury, iron, zinc, antimony, arsenic, silver, and cadmium was determined and found to agree with the theoretical result. Hydrogen sulfide is a strong enough oxidizing agent to oxidize stannous sulfide to stannic sulfide in neutral or basic solution (with triethylamine added). In basic solution antimony trisulfide is oxi- dized to antimony pentasulfide. In basic solution cadmium sulfide apparently forms a bisulfide complex in which three moles of bisul- fide ion are bonded to one mole of cadmium sulfide. Measurements were made extending the range over which the volumetric properties of hydrogen sulfide have been investigated to 220 °C and 2000 atm. A virial expression in density was used to represent the data. Good agreement, over the entire range investi- gated, between the virial expressions, earlier work, and the theorem of corresponding states was found. Electrical measurements were made on supercritical hydro- gen sulfide over the density range of 10 -24 moles per liter and at temperatures from the critical temperature to 220 °C. Dielectric constant measurements were represented by a dielectric virial ex- pression.

  • Iron, Steel and Swords Script - Page 1 Cerrusite Veins and a Cut Crystal (The "Light of the Desert")
    Early Metal Technology 2. Silver and Lead Silver Native silver is rather rare. Not as rare as native copper (if one excludes the "anomaly" of the "old copper complex" in North America), but still rarer than native gold. Native silver has been used but, just like gold, relatively late. The oldest occurrence of silver comes from a "hoard" found in the famous cave in Alepotrypa / Greece, dated to the mid 5th to early 4th millennium BC. It is thus roughly contemporary to the first gold in Varna. However, the Greeks neglected to supply any pictures of that hoard (in the Net). Native silver Source. Photographed in the Metropolitan Museum NYC. It appears that there aren't many artifacts around that were made from native silver. Hardly surprising considering how scarce it is. You can also get silver from "gold parting" but that was done rather late (roughly after 1500 BC) and does not produce elemental silver but a compound, same thing as an ore. So nothing helps: If you want silver, you must smelt some ore Silver sulfides are the most easily found ores, and those are typically mixed up with the lead sulfide galena (PbS) or with lead carbonate called cerrusite (PbCO3). The neolithic Anatolian towns knew galena because the people who lived there (in Çatal Höyük, to be exact) about 9000 years ago had made beads out of galena. They wouldn't have noticed the silver sulfide in there because even silver-rich galena rarely contains more than 0.5 % of the stuff. Nevertheless, most of the silver produced in antiquity was from the little bit of silver sulfide or other silver compounds contained in the lead ores galena or cerrusite.

  • Formation of Silver Sulfide in the Photographic Image During Fixation
    JOURNAL OF RESEARCH of the National Bureau of Standards-C. Engineering and Instrumentation Vol. 4C, No.1, January- March 1960 Formation of Silver Sulfide In the Photographic Image During Fixation Chester I. Pope (October 23, 1959) . A photo.graphic s!h:er im~g e is made ,Permanent (fix ed) aft~r development by bathing It 111 a solutIOn contall1lng thIOsulfate whICh forms a soluble tlllosuifate complex with the residual silver halide. Some of the sil ver in the image is sulfided by the thiosulfate during ~ xat io~. The p~rpo se of this study was to determine the amount of sulfiding of the silver III the Image dunng fi xatIOn of film and paper. The amount of the silver reacting depends on the type of t he light-sensitive layer. Also, during bleaching, the residual thiosulfate in the film or paper reacts with silver in a potassium dichromate-sulfuric acid bleach bath to form silver sulfide. For one paper, it was shown that the amount of silver sulfide which was formed in the bleach bath increased with the increase of the concentration of the residual thiosuifate in the paper. A procedure was developed for the reduction of silver sulfide in an emulsion layer to silver so t hat the silver sulfide may be determined in terms of the optical density of the silv l' deposit. The use of hypo eliminators was investigated and a test pro­ cedure was found for testing the effectiveness of hypo eliminators. A smaH amount of potassium iodide added to the fi xing bath was found effec t iv e in preventing most of the sulfiding of the silver image during fi xation.
