Metal cations in solution are complexed to H2O molecules and exist as hydrated ions. For example, Ni2+ complexes to form the hydrated ion Ni(H2O)62+. Metal cations are also able to complex to other ligands, such as NH3.

 

Part 1

An aqueous solution is prepared in which 0.00166 mol Ni(NO3)2 and 0.353 mol NH3 are dissolved in a total volume of 1.00 L.

Classify the species present in the resulting solution according to their relative amounts. Kf for Ni(NH3)62+ is equal to 5.5 × 108.

 

Part 2

Write the expression for the dissociation constant needed to determine the concentration of Ni(H2O)62+ ions at equilibrium in the solution formed in Part 1.

Kd = ___________

 

Part 3

Calculate the concentration of Ni(H2O)62+ ions at equilibrium in the solution formed.

______ M
