Question

Silver nitrate is slowly added to a solution that is 3.2 x 10^-3 M in Cl^- and 3.2 x 10^-3 M Br^-. Ksp(AgBr) = 5.0 x 10^-13 (assume the x-is-small approximation is valid for this calculation, then find some classmates and discuss: was it valid, how could you tell?) a. What will precipitate first? b. What percent of the first anion that precipitates will be left in solution when the second compound starts to precipitate?

a. What will precipitate first?
b. What percent of the first anion that precipitates will be left in solution when the second compound starts to precipitate?

Step 1

To determine what will precipitate first, we need to compare the solubility products (Ksp) of AgCl and AgBr. The Ksp of AgCl is 1.6 x 10^-10, which is smaller than the Ksp of AgBr (5.0 x 10^-13). This means that AgCl is less soluble than AgBr and will precipitate Show more…
