Solubility Equilibria
Why Study Solubility Equilibria?
• Many natural processes involve precipitation or
dissolution of salts. A few examples:
– Dissolving of underground limestone deposits
(CaCO3) forms caves
• Note: Limestone is water “insoluble” (How
can this be?)
– Precipitation of limestone (CaCO3) forms
stalactites and stalagmites in underground
caverns
– Precipitation of insoluble Ca3(PO4)2 and/or
CaC2O4 in the kidneys forms kidney stones
– Dissolving of tooth enamel, Ca5(PO4)3OH,
leads to tooth decay
– Precipitation of sodium urate, Na2C5H2N4O2, in
joints results in gouty arthritis.
Why Study Solubility Equilibria?
• Many chemical and industrial processes involve precipitation or
dissolution of salts. A few examples:
– Production/synthesis of many inorganic compounds involves their
precipitation reactions from aqueous solution
– Separation of metals from their ores often involves dissolution
– Qualitative analysis, i.e. identification of chemical species in
solution, involves characteristic precipitation and dissolution
reactions of salts
– Water treatment/purification often involves precipitation of metals as
insoluble inorganic salts
• Toxic Pb2+, Hg2+, Cd2+ removed as their insoluble sulfide (S2-)
salts
• PO43- removed as insoluble calcium salts
• Precipitation of gelatinous insoluble Al(OH)3 removes
suspended matter in water
Why Study Solubility Equilibria?
• To understand precipitation/dissolution processes in nature,
and how to exploit precipitation/dissolution processes for
useful purposes, we need to look at the quantitative
aspects of solubility and solubility equilibria.

Solubility of Ionic Compounds
• Solubility Rule Examples
– All alkali metal compounds are soluble
– Most hydroxide compounds are insoluble. The exceptions
are the alkali metals, Ba2+, and Ca2+
– Most compounds containing chloride are soluble. The
exceptions are those with Ag+, Pb2+, and Hg22+
– All chromates are insoluble, except those of the alkali
metals and the NH4+ ion

Solubility of Ionic Compounds
Solubility Equilibrium
MxAy(s) <=> xMy+(aq) + yAx-(aq)
The equilibrium constant for this reaction is the solubility
product, Ksp:
Ksp = [My+]x[Ax-]y
Solubility Product, Ksp
• Ksp is related to molar solubility
Solubility Product, Ksp
• Ksp is related to molar solubility
–qualitative comparisons
Solubility Product, Ksp
• Ksp used to compare relative
solubilities
–smaller Ksp = less soluble
–larger Ksp= more soluble
Solubility Product, Ksp
• Ksp is related to molar solubility
–qualitative comparisons
–quantitative calculations
Calculations with Ksp
• Basic steps for solving solubility equilibrium problems
– Write the balanced chemical equation for the solubility
equilibrium and the expression for Ksp
– Derive the mathematical relationship between Ksp and
molar solubility (x)
• Make an ICE table
• Substitute equilibrium concentrations of ions into Ksp
expression
– Using Ksp, solve for x or visa versa, depending on what
is wanted and the information provided
Example 1
• Calculate the Ksp for MgF2 if the molar solubility of
this salt is 2.7 x 10-3 M.
(ans.:7.9 x 10-8)
Example 2
• Calculate the Ksp for Ca3(PO4)2 (FW = 310.2) if the
solubility of this salt is 8.1 x 10-4 g/L.
(ans.: 1.3 x 10-26)
Example 3
• The Ksp for CaF2 (FW = 78 g/mol) is 4.0 x 10-11.
What is the molar solubility of CaF2 in water? What is
the solubility of CaF2 in water in g/L?
(ans.: 2.2 x 10-4 M, 0.017 g/L)

• one product is insoluble
• Example
Overall: CaCl2(aq) + Na2CO3(aq) --> CaCO3(s) + 2NaCl(aq)

Precipitation
• Compare precipitation to solubility equilibrium:
Ca2+(aq) + CO32-(aq) <=> CaCO3(s)
vs
CaCO3(s) <=> Ca2+(aq) + CO32-(aq)
saturated solution
Precipitation occurs until solubility equilibrium is
established.
Precipitation
Ca2+(aq) + CO32-(aq) <=> CaCO3(s)
vs
CaCO3(s) <=> Ca2+(aq) + CO32-(aq)
saturated solution
Key to forming ionic precipitates: Mix ions so
concentrations exceed those in saturated solution
(supersaturated solution)
Predicting Precipitation
• To determine if solution is supersaturated:
– Compare ion product (Q or IP) to Ksp
• For MxAy(s) <=> xMy+(aq) + yAx-(aq)
– Q = [My+]x[Ax-]y
– Q calculated for initial conditions
• Q > Ksp supersaturated solution, precipitation
occurs, solubility equilibrium established (Q = Ksp)
– Q = Ksp saturated solution, no precipitation
– Q < Ksp unsaturated solution, no precipitation
Predicting Precipitation
Basic Steps for Predicting Precipitation
– Consult solubility rules (if necessary) to determine what
ionic compound might precipitate
– Write the solubility equilibrium for this substance
• Pay close attention to the stoichiometry
– Calculate the moles of each ion involved before mixing
• moles = M x L or moles = mass/FW
– Calculate the concentration of each ion involved after
mixing assuming no reaction
– Calculate Q and compare to Ksp
Example 4
• Will a precipitate form if (a) 500.0 mL of 0.0030 M
lead nitrate, Pb(NO3)2, and 800.0 mL of 0.0040 M
sodium fluoride, NaF, are mixed, and (b) 500.0 mL of
0.0030 M Pb(NO3)2 and 800.0 mL of 0.040 M NaF
are mixed?
(ans.: (a) No, Q = 7.5 x 10-9; (b) Yes, Q = 7.5 x 10-7)
Solubility of Ionic Compounds
• Solubility Rules
– All alkali metal compounds are soluble
– The nitrates of all metals are soluble in water.
– Most compounds containing chloride are soluble. The
exceptions are those with Ag+, Pb2+, and Hg22+
– Most compounds containing fluoride are soluble. The
exceptions are those with Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, and Pb2+
• Ex. 4: Possible precipitate = PbF2 (Ksp = 4.1 x 10-8)

pH and Solubility

– Solubility of “insoluble” salts will be
affected by pH changes if the anion of
the salt is at least moderately basic
• Solubility increases as pH
decreases
• Solubility decreases as pH
increases
pH and Solubility

– basic anions
• Strong bases: OH-, O2• Weak bases (conjugate bases of weak molecular
acids): F-, S2-, CH3COO-, CO32-, PO43-, C2O42-,
CrO42-, etc.
• Solubility affected by pH changes
– neutral anions (conjugate bases of strong monoprotic
acids)
• Cl-, Br-, I-, NO3-, ClO4• Solubility not affected by pH changes
