Assume we are to tackle a complex aqueous equilibria problem using the systematic process we learned in class. In our example, we’re going to look at dissolving calcium sulfite (CaSO3, Ksp = 6.8 x 10–8) in water.  Write 4 relevant reactions and corresponding equilibrium expressions. Write 1 charge balance equation (based on your answer in “part 1”). Write 1 mass balance equation. CaSO3 needs to be somewhere in the answer.

Assume we are to tackle a complex aqueous equilibria problem using the systematic process we learned in class. In our example, we’re going to look at dissolving calcium sulfite (CaSO3, Ksp = 6.8 x 10–8) in water.

  1.  Write 4 relevant reactions and corresponding equilibrium expressions.
  2. Write 1 charge balance equation (based on your answer in “part 1”).
  3. Write 1 mass balance equation.

CaSO3 needs to be somewhere in the answer.
