Formation of soluble silver-ammonium complex, in an AgCl solution, occurs in a 3-step process: AgCI(s) Ag* (aq) + CI(aq) Kup Ag*(aq) + NH,(aq) = AGNH, (aq) AGNH, (aq) + NH,(aq) Ag(NH,), (aq) K2 K, where K, is the solubility product for AGCI and K, & K2 are the equilibrium constants for the complex formation. The over-all formation constant (K,) for the Ag(NH,), complex is equal to K, x K2.

Question

Based on the chemical equation provided, which of the following is equivalent to K2

a. [Ag+] [Cl-]

b. [AgNH3] / {[Ag+][NH3]}

c. [Ag(NH3)2+] / {[Ag(NH3)+][NH3]}

d. [Ag(NH3)2+] / {[Ag+][NH3+]2}

Formation of soluble silver-ammonium complex, in an
AgCl solution, occurs in a 3-step process:
AgCI(s)= Ag* (aq) + CH(aq)
Ag*(aq) + NH,(aq) AGNH, (aq)
AGNH, (aq) + NH,(aq) = Ag(NH3)2'(aq) K2
K,
where K, is the solubility product for AgCl and K, & K2
are the equilibrium constants for the complex formation.
The over-all formation constant (K,) for the Ag(NH,),"
complex is equal to K, x K2.
