Chapter 16 Worksheet 3 (Ws16.3) Quantitative Analysis of Solubility Equilibria Chapter 16 Worksheet 3 (ws16.3) Quantitative Analysis of Solubility Equilibria Solubility of Ionic Compunds In chapter 4, some solubility guidelines for ionic compounds were given in Table 4.2. A similar table from another textbook is given below. These compounds are classified as either soluble or insoluble. In reality many ionic compounds classified as insoluble are slightly soluble. We will now develop the tools to handle solubility quantitatively using equilibrium constants for dissolution reactions. Such an equilibrium constant is called Ksp where sp stands for solubility product. Some Ksp values are listed in table 16.2 in your textbook and reproduced at the end of this worksheet. We are interested in calculating the solubility of slightly soluble salts such as silver carbonate. Ksp is called the “solubility product” but it is NOT the solubility of the compound. It is the equilibrium constant for the dissolving (dissolution) reaction. For example: + 2− + 2 2− −12 Ag2CO3 (s) = 2Ag (aq) + CO3 (aq) Ksp = [Ag ] [ CO3 ] = 8.1 x 10 When the reaction is at equilibrium, the solution is saturated. The solubility of an ionic compound is its concentration in a saturated solution (its equilibrium concentration). This is not quite right since after an ionic compound dissolves, 100% of it dissociates. In the reaction above, the solubility of silver carbonate is actually the equilibrium concentration of the carbonate ion or ½ of the silver ion concentration. Will a precipitate form? 5. In chapter 4, you studied precipitation reactions in which two solutions of soluble salts were mixed to produce at least one insoluble salt. a.

In the previous problem, it was assumed that a precipitate would form because PbCh is classified as "insoluble". Although the solubility ofPbCh is very small, it is not zero. In general, a reaction between two soluble salts produces a precipitate only when the amount ofproduct formed exceeds the solubility of the compound. To predict whether or not a precipitate will form, simply compare Qto Ksp: If Q < Ksp, no precipitate will form If Q > Ksp, a precipitate will form If Q = Ksp, the solution is saturated (no precipitate will form) a.

However, ifS.OO mL of0.0300 M lead (II) nitrate is mixed with 10.0 mL of 0.0ISO M sodium chloride, no precipitate forms. Explain these observations by calculating Qfor each reaction and compare Qto Ksp PbCh. The calculations for the more concentrated solutions are done for you. Do the same calculations for the less concentrated solutions. Calculations for the more concentrated solutions Since two solutions are mixed, you must calculate the initial concentration ofeach salt using the dilution equation: M JV 1 M2V 2 (M J and V I are the molarity and volume before dilution.

When we say that acetic acid is a weak acid, we can take either of two points of view. Usually we say that acetic acid is a weak acid because it doesn’t ionize very much when dissolved in water. We say that not very many acetic acid molecules dissociate. However, we can describe this situation from another point of view. We could say that the reason acetic acid doesn’t dissociate much when we dissolve it in water is because the acetate ion (the conjugate base of acetic acid) is extremely effective at holding onto protons and specifically is better at holding onto protons than water is in attracting them. + – HC2H3O2 + H2O H3O + C2H3O2 Now what would happen if we had a source of free acetate ions (for example, sodium acetate) and placed them into water? Since acetate ion is better at attracting protons than is water, the acetate ions would pull protons out of water molecules, leaving hydroxide ions. That is, – – C2H3O2 + H2O HC2H3O2 + OH Since an increase in hydroxide ion concentration would take place in the solution, the solution would be basic. Because acetic acid is a weak acid, the acetate ion is a base in aqueous solution. – – 3. Since HCl, HNO3, and HClO4 are all strong acids, we know that their anions (Cl , NO3 , – and ClO4 ) must be very weak bases and that solutions of the sodium salts of these anions would not be basic.

Manipulate the equilibrium constant to reflect changes in the chemical equation Write the equilibrium-constant expression for a heterogeneous reaction Calculate an equilibrium constant from concentration measurements Predict the direction of a reaction given the equilibrium constant and the concentrations of reactants and products Calculate equilibrium concentrations given the equilibrium constant and all but one equilibrium concentration Calculate equilibrium concentrations given the equilibrium constant and the starting concentrations Use Le Chatelier’s principle to predict how changing the concentrations, volume, or temperature of a system at equilibrium affects the equilibrium position. The Concept of Equilibrium Chemical equilibrium occurs when a reaction and its reverse reaction proceed at the same rate. 1 Concept of Equilibrium • As a system approaches equilibrium, both the forward and reverse reactions are occurring. • At equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions are proceeding at the same rate. • Once equilibrium is achieved, the amount of each reactant and product remains constant. The same equilibrium is reached whether we start with only reactants (N2 and H2) or with only product (NH3). Equilibrium is reached from either direction. 2 The Equilibrium Constant • Consider the generalized reaction aA + bB cC + dD The equilibrium expression for this reaction would be [C]c[D]d K = c [A]a[B]b Since pressure is proportional to concentration for gases in a closed system, the equilibrium expression can also be written c d (PC) (PD) Kp = a b (PA) (PB) Chemical equilibrium occurs when opposing reactions are proceeding at equal rates.

  • Chapter 8:Chemical Reaction Equilibria 8.1 Introduction Reaction Chemistry Forms the Essence of Chemical Processes
    Chapter 8:Chemical Reaction Equilibria 8.1 Introduction Reaction chemistry forms the essence of chemical processes. The very distinctiveness of the chemical industry lies in its quest for transforming less useful substances to those which are useful to modern life. The perception of old art of ‘alchemy’ bordered on the magical; perhaps in today’s world its role in the form of modern chemistry is in no sense any less. Almost everything that is of use to humans is manufactured through the route of chemical synthesis. Such reactive processes need to be characterized in terms of the maximum possible yield of the desired product at any given conditions, starting from the raw materials (i.e., reactants). The theory of chemical reactions indicates that rates of reactions are generally enhanced by increase of temperature. However, experience shows that the maximum quantum of conversion of reactants to products does not increase monotonically. Indeed for a vast majority the maximum conversion reaches a maximum with respect to reaction temperature and subsequently diminishes. This is shown schematically in fig. 8.1. Fig. 8.1 Schematic of Equilibrium Reaction vs. Temperature The reason behind this phenomenon lies in the molecular processes that occur during a reaction. Consider a typical reaction of the following form occurring in gas phase: AgBgCgDg()+→+ () () (). The reaction typically begins with the reactants being brought together in a reactor. In the initial phases, molecules of A and B collide and form reactive complexes, which are eventually converted to the products C and D by means of molecular rearrangement. Clearly then the early phase of the reaction process is dominated by the presence and depletion of A and B.

Compounds of this type: acids, bases and salts may be classified as strong electrolytes dissociate in solution almost completely into ions, weak electrolytes dissociate only to a small extent in solution (only 10% or less ions are present in solution). Acids are compounds that ionize to release hydrogen ions, H+, to their surroundings. Bases are compounds that accept hydrogen ions, The equation for the ionization of a weak acid may be expressed as: HA ↔ H+ + A- (1) However, this suggests that protons exist free in solution. The reality is that protons are solvated in solution, that is they go around attached to a solvent (water) molecules.

  • EXPERIMENT 5 Determining K A
    EXPERIMENT 5 Determining K a Introduction In the previous lab, compounds were evaluated as to their general levels of acidity. In this experiment, the specific pH of a compound will be determined based on the specific degree of dissociation of the hydrogen ion from the acid resulting in a numerical value for the pH. To briefly review the Bronsted- Lowry theory, an acid is defined a compound that donates a hydrogen ion and a base accepts a hydrogen ion. When an acid is added to water, the liquid water acts as a base according to the following chemical reaction: + − HCl+ H 2O H3O + Cl In this example, the HCl dissociates completely and donates a hydrogen ion, H +, to a water molecule + + which acts as a base by receiving the H . The resulting product is a hydronium ion, H3O , that changes the pH of the water and a Cl − that acts as a spectator ion. Strong acids and bases are acidic or basic compounds that completely dissociate as in the equation above. As a result, the concentration of the hydronium ion can be calculated directly from the initial + − concentration of the HCl. For example, in water 1M HCl would produce 1M H3O (aq) and 1M Cl (aq). There would be no HCl left in solution at the end of the reaction. All of the reactant has been used up to form product. The pH of the solution can then be directly calculated from the initial concentration of the + strong acid and base using the equation; pH = -log(H3O ). However, the determination of pH in a weak acid or base solution is much more complicated.

  • Chapter 14. CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM
    Chapter 14. CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM 14.1 THE CONCEPT OF EQUILIBRIUM AND THE EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT Many chemical reactions do not go to completion but instead attain a state of chemical equilibrium. Chemical equilibrium: A state in which the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal and the concentrations of the reactants and products remain constant. ⇒ Equilibrium is a dynamic process – the conversions of reactants to products and products to reactants are still going on, although there is no net change in the number of reactant and product molecules. For the reaction: N2O4(g) 2NO2(g) N 2O4 Forward rate concentration NO Rate 2 Reverse rate time time The Equilibrium Constant For a reaction: aA + bB cC + dD [C]c [D]d equilibrium constant: Kc = [A]a [B]b The equilibrium constant, Kc, is the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations of products over the equilibrium concentrations of reactants each raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients. Example. Write the equilibrium constant, Kc, for N2O4(g) 2NO2(g) Law of mass action - The value of the equilibrium constant expression, Kc, is constant for a given reaction at equilibrium and at a constant temperature. ⇒ The equilibrium concentrations of reactants and products may vary, but the value for Kc remains the same. Other Characteristics of Kc 1) Equilibrium can be approached from either direction. 2) Kc does not depend on the initial concentrations of reactants and products. 3) Kc does depend on temperature. Magnitude of Kc ⇒ If the Kc value is large (Kc >> 1), the equilibrium lies to the right and the reaction mixture contains mostly products.
