    Consider two solutions, the first being 50.0 mL of1.00 M CuSO4 and the second 50.0 mL of 2.00 M KOH.When the two solutions are mixed in a constant-pressurecalorimeter, a precipitate forms and the temperature of themixture rises from 21.5 to 27.7 °C. (a) Before mixing, howmany grams of Cu are present in the solution of CuSO4?(b) Predict the identity of the precipitate in the reaction.(c) Write complete and net ionic equations for the reactionthat occurs when the two solutions are mixed. (d) From thecalorimetric data, calculate ΔH for the reaction that occurson mixing. Assume that the calorimeter absorbs only a negligiblequantity of heat, that the total volume of the solutionis 100.0 mL, and that the specific heat and density of thesolution after mixing are the same as those of pure water.

  • In the interface between sediment and water around a deep lake bottom, dissolved oxygen (DO) is usually low. Under such a condition, iron and sulfur typically exist in their reduction forms (i.e. Fe2+ and S2-).  Fe2+ and S2- can readily react with each other to produce ferrous sulfide (FeS), which is a black solid substance and finally settles down into the sediments at the lake bottom. The solubility product constant (i.e. equilibrium constant) of FeS is 8 x 10-9. At a chemical equilibrium state, what is the concentration of S2- in the water nearby the sediments if Fe2+ concentration in water is 10 - 4 M.
    1.1The Ksp of Ca3 (PO4 ) 2 is 1.3 × 10−26 . Estimate the solubility of this salt in units of g. L −1 . You must show any reaction equation(s) that you may think are necessary. 1.2 If a sample of solid Ca3(PO4)2 is stirred into exactly one litre of a 0.550M solution of Na3PO4, how will the solubility of the salt compare with the answer that you have obtained in question 1.1? Explain you answer in a short sentence.
    The solubility of Ag(I) in aqueous solutions containing dif-ferent concentrations of Cl is based on the following equilibria:Ag⁺(aq)+Cl⁻(aq)⇌AgCl(s) Kₛₚ=1.8X10⁻¹⁰ Ag⁺(aq)+2Cl⁻(aq)⇌AgCl₂⁻(s) K(f)=1.8X10⁻⁵ When solid AgCl is shaken with a solution containing Cl⁻, Ag(I)is present as both Ag⁺ and AgCl₂⁻. The solubility of AgCl is thesum of the concentrations of Ag and AgCl₂.(a) Show that [Ag⁺] in solution is given by[Ag⁺]=1.8X10⁻¹⁰/[Cl⁻]and that [AgCl₂⁻] in solution is given by [AgCl₂⁻](3.2X10⁻⁵)([Cl⁻] (b) Find the [Cl⁻] at which [Ag⁺][AgCl₂⁻].(c) Explain the shape of a plot of AgCl solubility vs. [Cl⁻].(d) Find the solubility of AgCl at the [Cl⁻] of part (b), which is the minimum solubility of AgCl in the presence of Cl
  • The solubility product constant for CaCO3 (s) in water is Ksp = [Ca+2] [CO3 -2] = 4.8 x 10^-9 Consider a 1.00 M solution of calcium chloride, in which you drop a piece of Dry Ice. Show that the minimum concentration (threshold amount) of carbonate ions necessary for a precipitate to appear is 4.8 x 10-9 M. Another way to think about this situation is to calculate the Q for the calcium chloride/Dry Ice solution and ask “will precipitation occur?”..
    Calcium carbonate (e.g. from limestone) is relatively insoluble in water, and the solubilitydecreases with rising temperature. This is why CaCO3 precipitates out as ‘scale’ in hot watermore readily than cold water. At a temperature of 20oC , calcium carbonate pKs = 8 . 8; at35oC , pKs = 9 . 25. If you had water that was at equilibrium with excess calcium carbonate at20oC and then raised the temperature to 35oC , what is the mass of CaCO3 that will precipitateout per litre of water? Hint: the difference in solubility will drive the reaction back to solid.           CaCO3 <-> Ca2+ + CO32-

(0.500, 0.025, 0.0125 or 0.100) What is the molar concentration of Cl- in the resulting mixture? (0.500, 0.025, 0.0125 or 0.100) What is the ion product (Q)?  Will a precipitate form? (yes or no)
