Chapter 24, Problem 30E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The overall formation constant ß₄for ${\left[\text{Cu}{\left({\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}\right)}_{\text{2}}{\left({\text{NH}}_{\text{2}}\right)}_{\text{4}}\right]}^{2+}$ is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The formation constant function is determined by the following formula:

$\log {\beta }_d=\log (K_a{K}_b{K}_c{K}_d)$

Where,

${\beta }_d$ = overall formation of constant.
