Assuming that no equilibria other than dissolution are involved, calculate the concentration of all solute species in each of the following solutions of salts in contact with a solution containing a common ion. Show that changes in the initial concentrations of the common ions can be neglected. (a) AgCl(s) in 0.025 M NaCl (b) CaF2(s) in 0.00133 M KF (c) Ag2SO4(s) in 0.500 L of a solution containing 19.50 g of K2SO4 (d) Zn(OH)2(s) in a solution buffered at a pH of 11.45\

Explanation:

a) AgCl(s) in 0.025 M NaCl

Equation:  AgCl(s) ⇄ Ag⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq)

Initial conc :    S            O               O

equili conc :    O            S                S

                  NaCl(s) ⇒ Na⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq)

Initial conc :  0.025      0           0

equili conc :     0          0.025    0.025

Therefore the concentration:  Ag⁺ = 6.4 * 10^-9 M,  Cl⁻  = 0.025 M

attached below is the detailed solution of the

- "the choice that is not an indicator of a chemical change is "state of matter changes". more common than not, chemical reactions produce energy in the form of light or heat. along with energy, they also produce a new substance called the product that could be in any state of matter (solid, gas, or liquid)."
