The solubility of lead(II) chloride is 0.45 g/100 mL of solution. What is the Ksp of PbCl2?a. 8.5 ? 10^-6b. 4.2 ? 10^-6c. 1.7 ? 10^-5d. 4.9 ? 10^-2e. < 1.0 ? 10^-6

Respuesta :

The solubility of lead(II) chloride is 0.45 g/100 mL of solution. The value of  [tex]K_{sp}[/tex] of [tex]PbCl_{2}[/tex]  is 1.7×[tex]10^{-5}[/tex] .

So, option C is correct one.

Calculation,

Number of moles of [tex]PbCl_{2}[/tex]  = mass/molar mass = 0.45/278.1 = 1.618×[tex]10^{-3}[/tex] moles

Concentration of [tex]Pb^{+2}[/tex] and [tex]Cl^{-}[/tex] ion

Molarity  of [tex]Pb^{+2}[/tex] = Number of moles of solute /volume in lit

Molarity  of [tex]Pb^{+2}[/tex] = 1.618×[tex]10^{-3}[/tex] moles /0.1 lit = 0.0162 M

[tex]PbCl_{2}[/tex] →  [tex]Pb^{+2}[/tex] +  2[tex]Cl^{-}[/tex]

For certain amount of  [tex]Pb^{+2}[/tex] , twice this amount of  [tex]Cl^{-}[/tex] ion formed.

The concentration of   [tex]Cl^{-}[/tex] ion formed = 2× 0.0162 M = 0.0324 M

Now,

The solubility of lead(II) chloride of solution = 0.45 g/100 mL

[tex]K_{sp}[/tex] of [tex]PbCl_{2}[/tex] = [ [tex]Pb^{+2}[/tex] ][tex][Cl^{-}]^{2}[/tex] = 0.0162 ×[tex][0.0324 ]^{2}[/tex] =  1.7×[tex]10^{-5}[/tex] .
