Question

Calculate the Qsp or Ksp, as indicated, and determine whether a precipitate will form when each of the following mixtures is prepared. (You may assume temperature is held constant, volumes are additive, and that the initial solutions, prior to mixing, are unsaturated.)

 

(a) 25.15 mL 1.51 ✕ 10−4 M CaCl2 is mixed with 25.31 mL 3.20 ✕ 10−3 M NaF. (Ksp for CaF2 = 3.5 ✕ 10−11)

Qsp     

 

A precipitate will form.

 

A precipitate will not form.    

 

 

(b) 14.86 mL 3.50 ✕ 10−3 M Pb(NO3)2 is mixed with 34.80 mL 1.78 ✕ 10−4 M Na2SO4. (Ksp for PbSO4 = 2.5 ✕ 10−8)

Qsp     

A precipitate will form.

 

A precipitate will not form.
