What is the molar solubility of CaF2 in 0.10 M NaF solution 25 degrees C?
The Ksp for CaF2 is 3.4x10-11.
The answer is 3.4x10-9 M. Please explain how to get to that answer. Thank you!
CaF2 -----------> Ca+2 + 2F-
I 0 0.1
C +x +2x
E +x 0.1+2x
Ksp = [Ca+2][F-]2
3.4*10-11 = x*(0.1+2x)2
3.4*10-11 = x(0.1+2x)2
x= 3.39*10-9
[Ca+2] = x = 3.39*10-9 M = [CaF2]
