Interpretation:
The soluble solid in NH3 should be determined.
Concept introduction:
A complex ion is a polyatomic cation or anion composed of a central metal ion to which other groups (molecules or ions) called ligands are bonded. Coordination compounds are substances containing complex ions.
To describe the ionization of a weak acid, we use the ionization constant for a solubility equilibrium, we use the solubility product constant Ksp. The equilibrium constant that is used to deal with complex-ion equilibrium is called the formation constant. The formation constant, Kf, of a complex ion is the equilibrium constant describing the formation of a complex ion from a central ion and its attached groups.

- Sometimes it is not possible to indicate the end point of a titration.a) How can one proceed then and what is the name of the type of titration that can be performed? Briefly describe. An example in which this method can be used is in the determination of mercury, which forms strong complexes with EDTA, but for which there is no suitable indicator that can indicate the end point. b) You are given the task of determining the Hg2 + concentration in a sample solution? After adding an excess of EDTA, the sample solution is titrated with a magnesium solution. 20.00 ml of a 0.0452 M EDTA solution was added to 30.00 ml of sample solutionThe excess EDTA was determined by adding 0.0500 M Mg 2+ solution, consuming 4.37 ml to the end point.arrow_forwardHow do you find the solubility constant for Al(OH)3, MnS, and Ca3(PO4)2?arrow_forwardAt what pH will Mg(OH)2 (Ksp = 5.61 x 10–12) begin precipitating from a 0.750 M MgCl2 solution?arrow_forward
