Write the dissociation reaction and the Ksp expression for Aluminum Phosphate (AlPO4) dissolving in water.

Solutions

Expert Solution

The dissociation of the sparingly soluble salt, aluminium phosphate, in water can be shown as below.

AlPO4(s) Al3+(aq) + PO43-(aq)

Initial concentration (M): s 0 0

Equilibrium concentration (M): s-sx sx sx; where 'x' is the degree of dissociaion of AlPO4.

The equilibrium constant for the dissociation reaction above above is

K = [Al3+]e[PO43-]e / [AlPO4], where the suffix 'e' denotes equilibrium.

K [AlPO4] = [Al3+]e[PO43-]e

Here, only a small part of AlPO4 is soluble in water, hence its concentration is constant.

i.e. K [AlPO4] = (Ksp)AlPO4.

Therefore, (Ksp)AlPO4 = [Al3+]e[PO43-]e

i.e. (Ksp)AlPO4 = (sx) * (sx)

Whatever part of salt is soluble in water, that part completely (100%) dissociates into corresponding ions, i.e. x = 1.

Therefore, (Ksp)AlPO4 = s * s, i.e. s2.
