Short Answer

Expert verified

$Theconcentrationof [{Pb}^{2 +}] is 7.9 \times 10^{- 7} M Theconcentrationof [{PbI}_{2 (aq)}] is 1.1 \times 10^{- 5} M Theconcentrationof [{PbI}_{3}] is 6.6 \times 10^{- 6} M$

Step by step solution

Define the solubility product

It is defined as the product of the dissolved ion concentration raised to the power of the stoichiometric coefficient.

$M_{y} X_{z (s)} \overset{K_{sp}}{⇌} M^{z +} (aq) + {zX}^{y -} (aq) K_{sp} = [M^{z +}]^{y} [X^{y -}]^{z}$

The solubility product is very helpful in predicting whether a salt precipitates in a solution.

Find the concentration.

For the reaction:

${PbI}_{2} (s) ⇇ {Pb}^{+ 2} + 2 I^{-} K_{sp} = 7.9 \times 10^{- 9}$

$K_{s p} = [P b^{+ 2}] [I^{-}]^{2}$

$[{Pb}^{2 +}] = K_{sp} / {[I^{-}]}^{2} = (7.9 \times 10^{- 9}) / {(0.10)}^{2} = 7.9 \times 10^{- 7} M$

Find the concentration.

$P b^{2 +} + 2 I^{-} \overset{β_{2}}{⇇} P b I_{2} β_{2} = 1.4 \times 10^{3} [P b I_{2 (a q)}] = β_{2} [P b^{2 +}] [I^{-}]^{2}$

$= 1.1 \times 10^{- 5} M$

Find the concentration.

$P b^{2 +} + 3 I^{-} \overset{β_{3}}{⇇} P b {I_{3}}^{-} β_{3} = 8.3 \times 10^{3}$

Concentration of $P b l_{3}^{-}$

$[{Pbl}_{3}^{-}] = β_{3} [{Pb}^{2 +}] {[l^{-}]}^{3} = 6.6 \times 10^{- 6} M$
