Q.
The solubility product of Ag2CrO4 in water a 298K is 3.2×10−11 . What will be the concentration of CrO42− ions in the saturate solution of Ag2CrO4 ?
For saturated solution of Ag2CrO4, if solubility is ' s′molL−1. Then sAg2CrO4⇌2s2Ag+(aq)+sCrO42−(aq) Ksp=(2s)2(s)=4s3 Ksp=3.2×10−11 (given) ∴3.2×10−11=4s3 s3=43.2×10−11=8×10−12 ∴s=8×10−12=2×10−4M
