Question

100.0 mL of a clear saturated solution of Ag2SO4 is added to 250.0 mL of a clear saturated solution of PbCrO4. Will any precipitate form and if so what? Given, Ksp values of Ag2SO4,Ag2CrO4,PbCrO4 are 1.4×105,2.4×1012,2.8×1013 and 1.6×108 respectively.

Solution

Ag2SO42Ag++SO24
Ksp=[Ag+][SO24]=1.4×105
let S mol dissolves
[Ag+]=2S
[SO24]=S
4S3=1.4×105 =[Ag+]=0.0304M
S=0.0152M
Mixed Solutions M1V1=M2V2
[Ag+]=0.0304×100350=8.68×103M
[SO24]=4.34×103M
PbCrO4Pb2++CrO24
Ksp=[Pb2+][CrO24]=(2.8×1013)
S2=2.8×1013S=5.29×107M
Upon Dilution5.29×107×250350=3.78×107M=[Pb2+]=[CrO24]
Will Ag2CrO4 ppt?
Ksp=[Ag+]2[CrO24]=1.1×1012
[8.86×103]2[3.78×107]=2.8(5)×1011 which is >1.1×1012 (so some Ag2CrO4will ppt).
