Ionic Equilibrium Question 2

Question 2 - 2024 (01 Feb Shift 2)

Solubility of calcium phosphate (molecular mass, M) in water is $\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{g}}$ per $100 \mathrm{~mL}$ at $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. Its solubility product at $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ will be approximately.

(1) $10^{7}\left(\frac{\mathrm{W}}{\mathrm{M}}\right)^{3}$

(2) $10^{7}\left(\frac{W}{M}\right)^{5}$

(3) $10^{3}\left(\frac{\mathrm{W}}{\mathrm{M}}\right)^{5}$

(4) $10^{5}\left(\frac{\mathrm{W}}{\mathrm{M}}\right)^{5}$

Show Answer

Answer (2)

Solution

$\mathrm{S}=\frac{\mathrm{W} \times 10}{\mathrm{M}}$

$\mathrm{S}=\frac{\mathrm{W} \times 1000}{\mathrm{M} \times 100}=\frac{\mathrm{W} \times 10}{\mathrm{M}}$

$\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{sp}}=(3 \mathrm{~s})^{3}(2 \mathrm{~s})^{2}$

$=108 \mathrm{~s}^{5}$

$=108 \times 10^{5} \times\left(\frac{\mathrm{W}}{\mathrm{M}}\right)^{5}$

$=1.08 \times 10^{7}\left(\frac{\mathrm{W}}{\mathrm{M}}\right)^{5}$
