Answer:

S = 7.9 × 10⁻⁵ M

S' = 2.6 × 10⁻⁷ M

Explanation:

To calculate the solubility of CuBr in pure water (S) we will use an ICE Chart. We identify 3 stages (Initial-Change-Equilibrium) and complete each row with the concentration or change in concentration. Let's consider the solution of CuBr.

    CuBr(s) ⇄ Cu⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

I                       0             0

C                     +S           +S

E                       S             S

The solubility product (Ksp) is:

Ksp = 6.27 × 10⁻⁹ = [Cu⁺].[Br⁻] = S²

S = 7.9 × 10⁻⁵ M

Solubility in 0.0120 M CoBr₂ (S')

First, we will consider the ionization of CoBr₂, a strong electrolyte.

CoBr₂(aq) → Co²⁺(aq) + 2 Br⁻(aq)

1 mole of CoBr₂ produces 2 moles of Br⁻. Then, the concentration of Br⁻ will be 2 × 0.0120 M = 0.0240 M.

Then,

    CuBr(s) ⇄ Cu⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

I                       0           0.0240

C                     +S'           +S'

E                       S'            0.0240 + S'

Ksp = 6.27 × 10⁻⁹ = [Cu⁺].[Br⁻] = S' . (0.0240 + S')

In the term (0.0240 + S'), S' is very small so we can neglect it to simplify the calculations.

S' = 2.6 × 10⁻⁷ M

The solubility of CuBr in pure water is 0.2583 g/L and the solubility in CoBr2 is 3.46*10^-5 g/L

Data;

  • CuBr2
  • CoBr2
  • Ksp = 6.27*10^-9

Solubility of CuBr

The equation of reaction is given as

[tex]CuBr_2 \to Cu^2^+ + 2Br^-[/tex]

In pure water, the Ksp of the solution is 6.27 * 10^-9

[tex]Ksp = [Cu^2^+][Br^-]^2\\Ksp = x^3[/tex]

Let's substitute and solve

[tex]x^3 = 6.27*10^-^9\\x = \sqrt[3]{6.27*10^-^9} \\x = 0.0018[/tex]

The molecular weight of CuBr2 is 143.5 g/mol

The solubility of CuBr2 is

[tex]0.0018 * 143.5 = 0.2583 g/L[/tex]

The solubility in 0.012M of CoBr2

The equation of dissociation is given as

[tex]CoBr_2 \to Co^2^+ + 2Br^-\\[/tex]

0.012         0         0

0                0.120   2 * 0.0120 = 0.024M

The dissociation of copper bromide is

[tex]CuBr_2 \to Cu^2^+ + Br^-\\[/tex]

c                 0         0.024

c - s             s          s + 0.024

The Ksp of this reaction is

[tex][Ksp] = [Co^2^+][Br^-][/tex]

The Ksp of CuBr2 = 6.27 * 10^-9

[tex]6.27*10^-^9 = s(s + 0.024)\\s + 0.024 = 0.024\\0.024 > > > s\\6.27*10^-^9 = s * 0.024\\s = 2.41*10^-^7 mol/l[/tex]

Let's convert this into g/L

[tex]s = 2.411 * 10^-^7 * 143.5 = 3.46*10^-6 g/L[/tex]

The solubility of CuBr in pure water is 0.2583 g/L and the solubility in CoBr2 is 3.46*10^-5 g/L
