The Solubility Product Principle
2
• Silver chloride, AgCl,is rather insoluble in water.
• Careful experiments show that if solid AgCl is placed in pure water and vigorously stirred, a small amount of the AgCl dissolves in the water.
Solubility Product Constants
AgCl(s) ⇌ Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
3
• The equilibrium constant expression for this dissolution is called a solubility product constant.
• Ksp = solubility product constant
Solubility Product Constants
Ksp =[Ag+ ][Cl- ] =1.8 ×10 -10

• The solubility product constant, Ksp, for a compound is the product of the concentrations of the constituent ions, each raised to the power that corresponds to the number of ions in one formula unit of the compound.
• Consider the dissolution of silver sulfide in water.
Solubility Product Constants
Ag2S(s) ⇌ 2Ag+(aq) + S2-(aq) Ksp = [Ag+]2[S-2]

• The dissolution of solid calcium phosphate in water is represented as:
The solubility product constant expression is:
Solubility Product Constants
Ca3(PO4)(s) ⇌ 3Ca+2(aq) + 2PO43-(aq)
Ksp = [Ca2+]3[PO4-3]2
6
• The same rules apply for compounds that have more than two kinds of ions.
• One example of a compound that has more than two kinds of ions is calcium ammonium phosphate.
CaNH4PO4(s) ⇌ Ca+2(aq) + NH4+ aq) + PO4

• Solubility is decreased when a common ion is added.
• This is an application of Le Châtelier’s principle:
BaSO4 ⇌ Ba2+ + SO42-
• as SO42- (from Na2SO4, say) is added, the
equilibrium shifts away from the increase.
• Therefore, BaSO4(s) is formed and precipitation occurs.
• As Na2SO4 is added to the system, the solubility of BaSO4 decreases.

• Finally, we calculate Qsp for PbSO4.Qsp = [Pb2+][SO4
2-] = (0.050)(0.0050) = 2.5 x 10-4
Ksp = 1.8 x 10-8
Qsp > Ksp. therefore solid forms

• Suppose we wish to remove mercury from an aqueous solution that contains a soluble mercury compound such as Hg(NO3)2. We can do this by precipitating mercury (II) ions as the insoluble compound HgS. What concentration of sulfide ions, from a soluble compound such as Na 2 S, is required to reduce the Hg2+ concentration to 1.0 x 10-8 M? For HgS, Ksp = 3.0 x 10-53.

• Fractional precipitation is a method of precipitating some ions from solution while leaving others in solution.
• Look at a solution that contains Cu+, Ag+, and Au+
• We could precipitate them as chlorides
• CuCl ⇌ Cu+ + Cl - Ksp = [Cu+][Cl -] = 1.9 x 10-7
• AgCl ⇌ Ag+ + Cl - Ksp = [Ag+][Cl -] = 1.8 x 10-10
• AuCl ⇌ Au+ + Cl- Ksp = [Au+][Cl -] = 2.0 x 10-13

• If solid sodium chloride is slowly added to a solution that is 0.010 M each in Cu+, Ag+, and Au+ ions, which compound precipitates first? Calculate the concentration of Cl- required to initiate precipitation of each of these metal(I) chlorides.

AuCl has the smallest Ksp so it precipitates first.
By the same reasoning, CuCl will precipitate last.
