Recrystallization ~ Purification of solids

Solvent of crystallization

2 Li+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + H2O(l) → Li2SO4H2O(s)

~ different chemical formula & mass

The solubility of Ionic Solids

Solubility at 25°C,

AgClO4 ; 5570 g/L, AgCl; 0.0018 g/L

Temperature dependence

- Mostly endothermic

→ Solubility increases with T

- CaSO4 exothermic

→ Solubility decreases with T

Classification (at 25 °C)

Soluble > 10 g/L,

Slightly soluble 0.1~10 g/L,

Insoluble < 0.1 g/L

Solubility and Ksp

Solubility product:

Ksp = [Ag+][Cl-] = 1.6×10-10 at 25 °C

AgCl(s) Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

738

Solubility (S) of AgCl at 25°C calculated from Ksp

Ksp = [Ag+][Cl-] = S2 = 1.6×10-10

S = 1.26×10-5 M

Gram solubility = (1.26×10-5 mol/L) × (143.3 g/mol)

= 1.8×10-3 g/L


738


CaF2(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2 F-(aq)

Ksp = [Ca2+][F-]2 = 3.9×10-11 at 25°C

[Ca2+] = S, [F-] = 2S

Ksp = [Ca2+][F-]2 = S (2S)2 = 4S3 → S = 2.1 ×10-4 M

Gram solubility = (2.1×10-4 mol/L) × (78.1 g/mol) = 0.017 g/L

EXAMPLE 16.1 Calculation of [Ca2+] and [F-] in a saturated solution

of CaF2 at 25°C: Ksp → Solubility

739


Ksp = [Ag+]2[CrO42-] = 2.7 ×10-12

Gram solubility: 0.029 g/L

Molar solubility: 0.029 g/L = 8.74 ×10-5 mol/L = S

[Ag+]= 2S, [CrO42-] = S

Ksp = [Ag+]2[CrO42-] = 4S3 = 2.7 ×10-12

→ 42 % greater than the tabulated value, 1.9 ×10-12

Solubility (0.029 g/L) → Ksp

16.3 PRECIPITATION AND THE SOLUBILITY PRODUCT

Precipitation from Solution

Ksp = [Ag+][Cl-]

Q0 = [Ag+]0[Cl-]0

~ initial reaction quotient

Q0 > Ksp precipitation

Q0 < Ksp dissolution

740


Cl- is the limiting reactant → complete precipitation first

Remaining [Ag+] = 0.0015 - 5.0 ×10-6 ≈ 0.0015 M

AgCl(s) Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq)----------------------------------------------------------------------Initial 0.0015 0Change + y + y

--------------- ------Equilibrium 0.0015 + y y----------------------------------------------------------------------

Ksp = 1.60 ×10-10 = (0.0015 + y) y ≈ 0.0015 y

y = [Cl-] = 1.1 ×10-7 M, [Ag+] = 0.0015 M

[Ag+]0 = 0.0015 M, [Cl-]0 = 5.0×10-6 M

The Common-Ion Effect ~ Solubility decreases in the presence of a common ion

AgCl NaCl or AgNO3

742

EX. Solubility of AgCl(s) in 1.00 L of 0.100 M NaCl solution

[Ag+]NaCl = S, [Cl-]NaCl = 0.100 + S

Ksp = 1.60 × 10-10

= [Ag+] NaCl [Cl-] NaCl

= S (0.100 + S) ≈ 0.100 S

(S < Swater =1.3 ×10-5 << 0.100)

CaCO3(s) + H3O+(aq) → Ca2+(aq) + HCO3-(aq) + H2O(l)

16.4 THE EFFECTS OF pH ON SOLUBILITY744


Solubility of Hydroxides

In pure water, [Zn2+] = S, [OH-] = 2S Ksp = S(2S)2

S = [Zn2+] = 2.2 ×10-6 M, [OH-] = 2S = 4.5 ×10-6 M, pH = 8.65

744

EXAMPLE 16.6

Zn(OH)2(s) Zn2+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq)

Ksp = [Zn2+][OH-]2 = 4.5 ×10-17

In acidic solution, [OH-] decreases. → reaction goes to the right

Comparison of solubilities of Zn(OH)2(s) in pure water

and in a buffer with pH 6.00.

In a pH = 6.00 buffer, [OH-] = 1.0 ×10-8 M (fixed).

[Zn2+] = Ksp / [OH-]2 = 0.45 M

Metal hydroxides are basic → more soluble in acidic solution


Solubility of Salts of Bases

CaF2(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2 F-(aq), Ksp = 3.9 ×10-11

746

- Solubility of CaF2(s) at low pH :

F-(aq) + H3O+(aq) HF(aq) + H2O(l), K = 2.9 ×103

→ more soluble in acidic solution (large K)

[H3O+] ↑ → [F-] ↓ → more CaF2(s) dissolves (Le Chatelier)

- Solubility of AgCl(s) at low pH :

AgCl(s) Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

- Even in acidic solution,

Cl-(aq) + H3O+(aq) ← HCl(aq) + H2O(l)

→ negligible effect of pH on the solubility of AgCl
