Concept Introduction:
When a solid ionic compound or salt dissolved in the solvent it will break into its constituent ion.
The number of ions present in the solvent depends upon the type of compound dissolves in the solvent.
The concentration of positive ions and negative ions present in the solvent may or may not be different it depends upon the type of salt.
The solubility of salt depends upon their solubility product

- An important component of blood is the buffer combination of dihydrogen phosphate ion and the hydrogen phosphate ion. Consider blood with a pH of 7.44. a What is the ratio of [H2PO4] to [HPO42]? b What does the pH become if 25% of the hydrogen phosphate ions are converted to dihydrogen phosphate ion? c What does the pH become if 15% of the dihydrogen phosphate ions are converted to hydrogen phosphate ions?arrow_forwardA solution is 1.5 104 M Zn2 and 0.20 M HSO4. The solution also contains Na2SO4. What should be the minimum molarity of Na2SO4 to prevent the precipitation of zinc sulfide when the solution is saturated with hydrogen sulfide (0.10 M H2S)?arrow_forwardCalculate the cadmium ion concentration, [Cd2+], in a solution prepared by mixing 0.100 L of 0.0100 M Cd(NO3)2 with 1.150 L of 0.100 NH3(aq).arrow_forward
- Calculate K for the reactions in Question 4.arrow_forwardThe text describes zinc hydroxide as an amphoteric hydroxide, so Zn(OH)2 is soluble in basic solution. What is the molar solubility of Zn(OH)2 in 1.00 M NaOH? What is the pH of the equilibrium solution?arrow_forwardThe hydrogen phthalate ion, C8HsO4, is a weak acid with Ka = 3.91 106. C8H5O4(aq)+H2O(l)C8H4O42(aq)+H3O+(aq) What is the pH of a 0.050 M solution of potassium hydrogen phthalate. KC8H5O4? Note: To find the pH for a solution of the anion, we must take into account that the ion is amphiprotic. It can be shown that, for most cases of amphiprotic ions, the H3O+ concentration is [H3O+]=Ka1Ka2 For phthalic acid, C8H6O4 is Ka1 is 1.12 103, and Ka2 is 3.91 106.arrow_forward
