Question 3 : The equilibrium constant for the formation of Cu(CN)42 is 2.0 x 1030. Calculate the value of pCu2+, or -log[Cu2+], if we were to dissolve 2.65 g of CuCl₂ in 1.000 L of a solution 0.948 M in NaCN. The addition of CuCl₂ does not alter the volume (the final volume is still 1.000 L).

Question 3
The equilibrium constant for the formation of Cu(CN)2- is 2.0 x 1030. Calculate the value of pCu²+, or -log[Cu²+], if we were to dissolve 2.65 g of CuCl₂ in 1.000 L of a solution 0.948 M in NaCN. The addition of CuCl₂
does not alter the volume (the final volume is still 1.000 L).
