Stoichiometry Flashcards
Ksp for [M+][X-] (MX -> M+ + X-)
Ksp= x^2
Ksp for [M2+][X-]^2 (MX2 -> M 2+ + 2X-)
Ksp= 4x^3
Ksp for [M3+][X-]^3 (M’X3 -> M’3+ + 3X-)
Ksp= 27x^4
Solubility rule: Salts of +1 cation (non-transition) and -1 anion
Soluble in water at room temp. (silver halide insoluble, sodium salt soluble)
Solubility rule: Nitrate (NO3-) salts
large anion that forms weak lattice interactions and strong H+ bonds with water, so most nitrate salts are water-soluble
Solubility rule: Salts with 2- or 3- anions
Generally insoluble in water, excluding sulfate (SO4(2-))
Solubility rule: Oxide (O2-) and hydroxide (OH-) salts
Only slightly water-soluble. (KOH and NaOH are exceptions, v soluble)
Why is a small hole present in the cap of the flask in the Dumas experiment?
To allow the vapor pressure in the flask to equilibrate with the atmospheric pressure
What is the purpose of the Dumas experiment
To determine the molec mass of an unknown liquid
First salt to precipitate after an anion is added has:
lowest molar solubility of all salts in solution
What happens to Ksp and solubility when acidity of saturated Mg(OH)2 is increased?
Additional MgOH2 will dissolve and Ksp will be unchanged
Beer’s Law
States that absorbance depends on molar absorbitivity constant, concentration, and path-length
EG: Adding 5 parts water to 0.6M solution gives you:
0.1M solution. Adding 5 parts water gives new volume 6x original. M1V1=M2V2.
EG: What is the [Cl-] after mixing 50mL 0.1M KCl with 25mL of 0.2M MgCl2
Find the weighted average. So 2/3 KCL and 1/3 MgCl2
0.4(BOTH Cl)0.3333= 0.13333, 0.1.66666= 0.0666,
so roughly 0.2 M Cl-
