Equal volumes of 0.180 M AgNO3 and 0.160 M ZnCl2 solution are mixed. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of Ag+ and Zn2+.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Since equal volumes of the two solutions were used, theinitial molar concentrations will be halved.

               [Ag+]= 0.18 M / 2 = 0.090 M

               [Cl-]= 2 (0.16 M) / 2 = 0.16 M

Let's assumbe that the Ag+ ions and Cl-ions react completely to form AgCl (s). Then, we'llre-establish the equilibrium between AgCl, Ag+, andCl-.

                          Ag+ (aq)    +     Cl-(aq)           ->         AgCl(s)

Initiial(M):            0.090               0.16 0

Change(M):        -0.090              -0.090                              +0.090

Final(M):            0                        0.070                              0.090

Now, setting up the equilibrium,

                              AgCl(s)     ->          Ag+ (aq)       +           Cl- (aq)

Initiial(M):               0.090                         0                                0.070

Change(M):              -s                            +s                              +s

Equilibrium (M):       0.090-s                       s                              0.070+ s

Set up the Ksp expression to solve for s.

                 Ksp= [Ag+] [Cl-]

               1.6x 10-10 = (s) (0.070 + s)

               s= 2.0 x 10-9 M

               [Ag+] = s = 2.0 x 10-9 M

               [Cl-] = 0.070 M + s = 0.070 M

               [Zn2+]= 0.16 M / 2 = 0.080 M

               [NO-3]= 0.18 M / 2 = 0.090 M
