For each of the following ionic compounds, state whether the solubility will increase, decrease, or remain unchanged as a solution at pH 7 is made acidic. (a) PbI2 (b) AgOH (c) Ca3(PO4)2
Welcome to OpenStudy! Note: You've posted your Chemistry question within the Math section. I won't object this time. Next time, place it within the Chemistry section, OK? Thanks.
coukd you help me out
please
sorry, not good in Chemistry
do you know who could help me ?
For each of the following ionic compounds, state whether the solubility will increase, decrease, or remain unchanged as a solution at pH 7 is made acidic. a. PbI2 PbI2 ==> Pb2+ (aq) + 2I- (aq) Since I- is the conjugate base of a strong acid (HI), solubility will remain unchanged as the solution is made acidic. b. AgOH AgOH(s) ==> Ag+ (aq) + HO- (aq) Since HO- is the conjugate base of a weak acid (H2O) and is thus a strong base, solubility will increase as the solution is made acidic, since OH is consumed by the added acid. c. Ca3(PO4)2 Ca3(PO4)2 ==> 3Ca2+ (aq) + 2PO4 3- (aq) Since PO4 3- is the conjugate base of a weak acid (HPO4 2-), the solubility will increase as the solution is made acidic
thanks a lot I'm really thankfull
