Solubility Equilibria (Sec 6-4)
Ksp = solubility product
AgCl(s) = Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Ksp =
CaF2(s) = Ca2+(aq) + 2F-(aq)
Ksp =
in general AmBn = mAn+ + nBm-
Ksp = [An+]m[Bm-]n
We use Ksp to calculate the equilibrium solubility of a compound.
Calculating the Solubility of an Ionic Compound (p.136)
e.g. PbI2
in general for AmBn = mAn+ + nBm-
The Common Ion Effect (p. 137)
What happens to the solubility of PbI2 if we add a second source of I- (e.g. the PbI2 is being dissolved in a solution of 0.030 M NaI)?
The common ion =

Up to now we've ignored two points-

PbI2(s) = Pb2+(aq) + 2I-(aq)
Ksp = 7.9 x 10-9 (ignoring PbOH+, PbI3-, etc)

We can calculate the activity coefficients if we know what the ionic strength of the solution is.
Charge Effects - an ion with a +2 charge affects activity of a given electrolyte more than an ion with a +1 charge
= ionic strength, a measure of the magnitude of the electrostatic environment

Zi = charge

Easy solution using Table 12-1:

Systematic Treatment of Equilibria (Sec 12-3 and 12-4)
A procedure for solving any equilibrium problem no matter how complicated.
Charge Balance - the sum of the positive charges in solution must equal the sum of negative charges.
e.g. sulfate ion CSO42- = 0.0167 M
General charge balance equation -
n1[C1] + n2[C2] +…. = m1[A1] + m2[A2] + …
where C = cation concentration
n = cation charge
A = anion concentration
m = anion charge
e.g. write the charge balance equation for a soln of Na2SO4 and NaCl in water.
Mass Balance
The sum of all substances in solution containing a particular atom (or group of atoms) must equal the quantity added to solution.
e.g. solution of 0.050 M Hac
HAcHAcHAcHAcHAcHAcHAcHAcHAcHAc
e.g. solution of 0.025 M H3PO4

Mass balance for a sparingly soluble salt follows this approach:
e.g. PbCl2
initially: [I-] = 2 [Pb2+]
General Procedure
1. Write down all the relevant chemical equations2. Write the charge blance3. Write the mass balance4. Write down the equilibrium constant expressions
(only step where activities may be used)5. Make sure that the number of unknowns equals
the number of equations6. Solve the system of equations
-make approximations-use a computer
Coupled Equilibria: Solubility of CaF2
1. Relevant equations
CaF2(s) Ca2+ + 2 F-
F- + H2O HF + OH-
H2O H+ + OH-
2. Charge Balance
3. Mass Balance
4. Equilibrium Expressions
5.Number of equations = number of unknowns
[H+], [OH-], [Ca2+], [F-], [HF] = unknowns
6.Simplifying Assumptions and Solution
• fix the pH using a buffer { [H+] = CH+ } , removes one unknown
• adding a buffer and associated ions nullifies the charge balance equation
• so now we have 4 equations and 4 unknowns
After buffering to pH = 3.0, [H+] = 1.0 x 10-3 M
[OH-] = Kw/[H+] = 1.0 x 10-11 M and now subst into Kb

[HF] = 1.5[F-] and now subst 1.5[F-] for [HF] in the mass balance equation
[F-] + [HF] = 2[Ca2+]
[F-] + 1.5[F-] = 2[Ca2+]
[F-] = 0.80[Ca2+] and finally subst 0.80[Ca2+] for [F-] into Ksp
[Ca2+][F-]2 = Ksp
[Ca2+](0.80[Ca2+])2 = Ksp
[Ca2+] = (Ksp/0.802)1/3 = 3.9 x 10-4 M
