b. What is the molar solubility of silver carbonate, Ag2CO3?c. What is the solubility product constant, Ksp,......
Silver carbonate, Ag2CO3, is a sparingly soluble solid. Please answer the following questions about a saturated solution prepared by placing solid silver carbonate in pure water in which the silver ion concentration, [Ag1+], was found to be 3.14E-04 M.
a. What is the concentration of carbonate ions, [CO32-]? M
b. What is the molar solubility of silver carbonate, Ag2CO3? M
c. What is the solubility product constant, Ksp, for silver carbonate, Ag2CO3?

a. What is the concentration of carbonate ions, [CO32-]? M
by the equation
Ag2CO3 <=> 2 moles of Ag+ & 1 moles of (CO3)-2
moles of CO3)-2 released from Ag2CO3 are 1/2 as many moles as Ag+ that are released
so
when 3.14E-04 M.Ag+ is released...
then 1.57E-04 M (CO3)^-2 is released as well

======================

b. What is the molar solubility of silver carbonate, Ag2CO3?

by the equation
1 mole of Ag2CO3 <=> 2 Ag+ & 1 moles of (CO3)-2
moles of Ag2CO3 that dissolve, release an equal number of moles of (CO3)-3
so
1.57E-04 M (CO3)^-2 was released because ....
the molar solubility of silver carbonateis also 1.57E-04 M

==========================

c. What is the solubility product constant, Ksp, for silver carbonate, Ag2CO3

by the equation
Ag2CO3 <=> 2 Ag+ & 1 (CO3)-2

Ksp = [Ag+]^2 [CO3-2]

Ksp = [3.14E-04 ]^2 [1.57E-04 ]

Ksp = 1.55 X 10^-11
