    Precipitation Equilibria and Titrations

    The document discusses solubility equilibria and titrations. It states that an equilibrium exists between an undissolved solute and its saturated solution when the rates of precipitation and dissolution are equal. For an ionic compound, the equilibrium is represented by the chemical equation MxAy (s) ↔ xM + yA. The mathematical description of this equilibrium, Keq, relates the activities of the dissolved ions to the activity of the undissolved solute. For dilute solutions, activity approximates concentration, allowing Keq to be written as Ksp, relating the concentrations of dissolved ions.

    PRECIPITATION EQUILIBRIA AND TITRATIONS Solubility Equilibria - An equilibrium exists between an undissolved solute and its saturated solution

    when the rate of precipitation equals the rate of dissolution. - For an ionic compound, MxAy (s) xM + yA Where M represents a metal cation and A an anion The mathematical description of this equilibrium is given by, Keq = (aM)x(aA)y / aMxAy(s) - For a pure substance a = 1 and that the activity of a dilute solution is approximately the same as its concentration, Keq = Ksp = [M]x[A]y Calculating Solubility - Solubility = the concentration of a dissolved solute at equilibrium with its undissolved form Effect of Common Ions
