Question

What is the value of $K_{sp}$ for silver acetate solution if a saturated solution contains $2\times {10}^{-3}$ moles of silver ion$/$liter of solution?

• A. $2\times {10}^{-3}$
• B. $2\times {10}^{-6}$
• C. $4\times {10}^{-3}$
• D. $4\times {10}^{-6}$
• E. $4\times {10}^6$

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

$4\times {10}^{-6}$

${CH}_{3}COOAg={Ag}^{+}+{CH}_3{COO}^{-}$

initially, $S$ $S$ $S$

$K_{SP}=\left[{CH}_3{COO}^{-}\right]\left[{Ag}^{+}\right]=S^2=4\times {10}^{-6}$
