Solubility Product (Ksp)
Quiz # 7
Average = 5.3
Solubility Equilibria
• The solubility product is another
example of equilibrium calculations
• Solubility product calcs depend on
the common ion effect (LeChâtelier).
• They have particular applications
with metal ions and pH calculations
(environmental applications).

Factors that Affect Solubility
The Common Ion Effect
• Solubility is decreased when a common
ion is added (Le Châtelier again)
CaF2(s)
Ca2+(aq) + 2F-(aq)
• as F- (from NaF, say) is added, the
equilibrium shifts left, therefore CaF2(s)
is formed (precipitation occurs).
• As NaF is added to the system, the
solubility of CaF2 decreases.
Solubility and pH
• If F- is removed, then the equilibrium
shifts right and CaF2 dissolves.
CaF2(s)
Ca2+(aq) + 2F-(aq)
• F- can be removed by adding a strong
acid:
F-(aq) + H+(aq)
HF(aq)
• As pH decreases, [H+] increases and
solubility increases.
• The effect of pH is dramatic!
Equilibrium Calculations:
Example: AgCl(s) Ag+ + ClKsp = 1.810-10
Are reactants or products favored?
Question:
15.0 g of AgCl are put in 100 mL of
pure water; what is the [Ag+]?
Calculation of concentrations:
Keq = [Ag+][Cl-] = 1.810-10
x2 = 1.8 10-10
[Ag+] = x = 1.34 10-5 M
Don’t need to know how much solid
is there….it is a solely a function of
the Keq of the ions in solution!
Equilibrium Calculations:
Example: AgCl(s) Ag+ + ClKsp = 1.810-10
Now add some common ions:
Question:
15.0 g of AgCl are put in 100 mL of salt
water ([Cl-]=0.1M); what is the [Ag+]?
Calculation of concentrations:
Keq = [Ag+][Cl-] = 1.810-10
x (0.1 + x) = 1.8 10-10
[Ag+] = x = 1.8 10-9 M
vs. 1.34 10-5 M
Significant reduction of solubility
by having common ion in solution
(often done with pH)!

Worksheet #10
What is calcium phosphate?
Ca3(PO4)2
What is the Ksp expression?
Ca3(PO4)2 3 Ca2+ + 2 PO43Ksp = [Ca2+]3[PO43-]2 = 2.0 10-29
[Ca2+] = 0.2 M
[PO43-] = 2.0 10-3 M
Worksheet #10
Ca3(PO4)2 3 Ca2+ + 2 PO430.2
2.0 10-3
-3.0 10-3 -2.0 10-3
0.197
0.0
Ksp = [Ca2+]3[PO43-]2 = 2.0 10-29
[Ca2+] = 0.2 M
[PO43-] = 3.0 10-3 M
Worksheet #10
Ca3(PO4)2 3 Ca2+ + 2 PO430.2
2.0 10-3
-3.0 10-3 -2.0 10-3
0.197
0.0
Ksp = [Ca2+]3[PO43-]2 = 2.0 10-29
Ksp = [0.197+3x]3[2x ]2 = 2.0 10-29
2x = 5.1 10-14 M
Worksheet #10
What mass of Ca3(PO4)2 precipitates?
0.2

= 2.0 10-3 M 2000 L = 4.0 mol
= 1.24 kg
Worksheet #10
Cr(OH)3 Cr3+ + 3 OH+x
+3x
Ksp = [Cr3+][OH-]3 = 1.6 10-30
pH = 8.0 then [OH-] = 1.0 10-6
x(1.0 10-6 + 3x)3 = 1.6 10-30
x = [Cr3+] = 1.6 10-12 M
Worksheet #10
Cr(OH)3 Cr3+ + 3 OH+x
+3x
Ksp = [Cr3+][OH-]3 = 1.6 10-30
pH = 6.0 then [OH-] = 1.0 10-8
x(1.0 10-8 + 3x)3 = 1.6 10-30
x = [Cr3+] = 1.6 10-6 M
x is no longer small…solve exactly!
Another way to ask Ksp:
Exactly 4.68 g of silver sulfate will
dissolve in 1.00 L of water. What is
the Ksp of silver sulfate at this temp?
Ag2SO4 : 312 g/mol
4.68 g/L = 1.50 10-2 M
Ag2SO4 2Ag+ + SO42-x
+ 2x + x
x = 1.50 10-2 M
Ksp = (2x)2 x = 2.70 10-5
Complex Formation…
Stoichiometry of Complexes
A species that bonds to a metal cation to
form a complex is known as a ligand.
The number of ligands is called the
coordination number)
The stabilization of a metal complex by a
ligand with more than one donor atom is
known as the chelate effect.
The Chelate Effect
Ligands that have two or more donor atoms are
chelating ligands.
Chelating ligands bond more tightly to the metal
cations.
Ethylenediamine (H2NCH2CH2NH2) is a
common chelating ligand - it is abbreviated as
“en”
Each nitrogen has a lone pair of electrons which
can be donor atoms. Thus en is said to be
bidentate
Complex Formation and Solubility
Complexation can enhance solubility.
It removes metal cations from solution
causing the equilibrium to shift to the
left, and dissolve more solid.
Example:
Ni(OH)2 Ni2+ + 2 OH- Ksp=5.510-17
Ni2+ + 3 en Ni(en)3
Kf= 4.110+17
Ni(OH)2 + 3 en Ni(en)3 + 2 OHKeq= 22.6
