In an experiment to calculate the solubility product (Ksp) of barium nitrate (Ba(NO3)2), an excess amount of Ba(NO3)2 was added to 2 liters of water at 25oC until the solution is saturated. Because Ba(NO3)2 is only slightly soluble in water, the excess Ba(NO3)2 was filtered out to get a solid-free mixture. The proponents of the experiment thought about using the concept of colligative properties, specifically boiling point elevation, to determine Ksp. It was observed in their experiments that the solution boils at 100.15 K. Barium nitrate dissociates via the process: ?a(??3)2(?) ⇄ ??2+(?q) + 2??-3(?q) ??p = [??2+][??3−]2 Calculate the following if Kb,water = 0.51 K-kg/mol: a) Amount of Ba(NO3)2 dissolved in grams.

Coiled coils are protein domains that lead to the formation of multimers (dimers,trimers, tetramers, etc.). They are found in a wide range of proteins. Here we willconsider the trimerization reaction. We may write the chemical equilibrium as3 M(aq) ⇄ T(aq)where M and T represent, respectively, the monomer and trimer species. Given that∆rG0 = −25.00 kJ mol−1 at 37 0C (with the standard state the normal one for reactionsin solution, namely c0 = 1.0 mol dm−3):A) What is the equilibrium constant for the formation of the trimer at 37 0C?

Determine the solubility product constant (Ksp) of borax, a slightly soluble sodium salt, in water at two different temperatures and evaluate the enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy change for dissolving borax in water. The equilibrium expression for the process is: Na2B4O5(OH)4 10H2O (s) ⇌ 2 Na+ (aq) + B4O5(OH)4 2- (aq) + 10H2O(l) Since liquid water and solid borax are not included in the Ksp expression, the solubility product expression associated with this reaction is: Ksp = [Na+]2[borate] The concentration of the borate ion in equilibrium with solid borax can be determined by titration with HCl based on the following equation: B4O5(OH)42- + 2HCl(aq) + 3H2O (l) → 4 H3BO3(aq)+2Cl-(aq) The Ksp for borax will be evaluated at room temperature at 5oC. Knowing the Ksp values at two temperatures allows the use of the following equations to calculate the change in enthalpy and Gibbs free energy: In(Ksp1/Ksp2)=ΔH/R((1/T2)-(1/T1)) ΔGo= - RT InKsp Once ΔHo and ΔGo are known, you can find…
