Question
To 100 ml of a solution, which contains 8.32 × 10–3 g lead ions, 10−4 moles of H2SO4 is added. How much lead remains in the solution unprecipitated? Ksp of PbSO4 = 1.6 × 10−7. (Pb = 208)
Options
Solution
$Pb^{2 +} + SO_{4}^{2 -} \rightleftharpoons PbSO_{4}(s);K_{eq} = \frac{1}{K_{sp}} = \frac{1}{1.6 \times 10^{- 7}}$
$\frac{8.32 \times 10^{- 3}/200}{100/1000}\frac{10^{- 4}}{100/1000} $$$= 4 \times 10^{- 4} = 10^{- 3}$$
100% $0\left( 10^{- 3} - 4 \times 10^{- 4} \right) = 6 \times 10^{- 4}M$
Eqn. $xM\left( 6 \times 10^{- 4} + x \right)M$
As $\left\lbrack Pb^{2 +} \right\rbrack\left\lbrack SO_{4}^{2 -} \right\rbrack = K_{sp} \Rightarrow x.\left( 6 \times 10^{- 4} + x \right) = 1.6 \times 10^{- 7}$
$\Rightarrow x = 2 \times 10^{- 4}\text{ M}$
∴ Mass of lead un-precipitated = $\left( \frac{100 \times 2 \times 10^{- 4}}{1000} \right) \times 208 = 4.16 \times 10^{- 3}\text{ gm}$
