A voltaic cell is set up such that one half-cell is W3+|W (E = 0.1 V) and the other is Zr4+|Zr (E = −1.45 V). The tungsten half-cell is under standard conditions. Enough sodium phosphate is added to the zirconium half-cell to precipitate most of the zirconium ion and make the equilibrium concentration of phosphate 0.0347 M. The cell potential under these conditions at 25.0 ∘C is 1.58 V. What is the solubility product constant of zirconium(IV) phosphate?
