If AgNO3 solution is added to a solution containing Br ions until the silver ion concentration is 1.3x10-6 what is the Br ion concentration The ksp for AgBr is 5.2x10-23?

To determine the concentration of Br ions, we can use the solubility product constant (Ksp) expression for AgBr, which is equal to [Ag+][Br-]. Given that the [Ag+] is 1.3x10-6 and the Ksp for AgBr is 5.2x10-23, we can rearrange the equation to solve for [Br-]. Thus, [Br-] = Ksp/[Ag+] = (5.2x10-23) / (1.3x10-6) = 4x10-17. Therefore, the Br- ion concentration is 4x10-17.


What is the correct equilibrium expression for the dissolution of calcium phosphate Ca3(PO4) water?

Equilibrium in the case of a generally insoluble salt takes the form of "Ksp," which means solubility product constant. Ksp = [Ca+2]3[PO4-3]2


What is the Ksp for NiOH2?

Why Ksp is measured for salts only?

No. Ksp can be used for metals as well, such as lead (Pb). The Ksp for Pb is often very small, but increases with increasing temperature.


What is the relationship between Ksp and the product of ion concentrations in terms of determining whether a solution if those ions is saturated?

Ion product < Ksp Unsaturated solution Ion product = Ksp Saturated solution Ion product > Ksp Supersaturated solution


What is the Solubility Product Constant Ksp for AgNO3?

Ksp= [Products]^mole ratio so Ksp=[Ag+][NO3] Since you didnt provide any numerical values, that's as far as you can go. You can look for known Ksp values at certain temperatures in some AP Chemistry books or online.
