Chem Lesson 6: 15.1 - 15.2 Flashcards
Solubility
Ability of a solute to dissolve in a solution
Solubility Rules and Exceptions
N nitrates
A acetates
G group 1
S sulfates
A ammonium (nh4+)
G group 17
Execemptions
1. Never soluble with sulfates or group 17
P Lead (Pb)
M Mercury (Hg2+2)
S Silver (Ag+)
Castro Bear
2. Never soluble with sulfates
Ca2+ Sr 2+ Ba 2+
Most Carbonates are insoluble: Exceptions Group 1 and NH4+
Most Phosphates are insoluble - Exceptions Group 1 and NH4+
Ksp Constant (Equilibrium)
(Solubility Product)
Level at which a solute dissolves in a solution.
Plug concentrations into ksp to solve.
(Reactants aren’t in Ksp)
Molar Solubility
The number of moles of the solute that dissolves to form a liter of saturated solution
Another name for Solubility Product
Ksp
Precipitation Reaction
When to ions react in a solution to form a insoluble compound
Qsp < Ksp (will precipitate form)
No because there’s more reactants than products.
Qsp > Ksp (will precipitate form)
Yes because there’s more products than reactants.
Electrolyte
Substance that gives ions when dissolved in water.
Another name for Solubility Product
Ksp
Calculate Molar Solubility (solve for what?)
Solve for x
What physical state must an ionic compound have for Ksp
Solid (s)
Unit for Mass
Grams
Mass to mole
Mole = Mass * L
When to use ICE table
When you’re not a saturation (equilibrium)
