STOP
- What is the ionic strength of a 0.00333 M solution of PbI2 and the activity coefficient of Pb2+ and I-?
STOP
- Calculate the solubility of 0.00333 M PbI2 (Ksp 7.9×10-9) solution with 2 different scenarios.
- Assume PbI2 solubility is low enough not to effect ionic strength.
- Assume PbI2 solubility effects ionic strength.
- How does the solubility differ and how can you explain the difference?
- Assume PbI2 solubility is low enough not to effect ionic strength.
