  • question_answer
    A solution is saturated with respect to \[SrC{{O}_{2}}\] and \[Sr{{F}_{2}}\] The \[\left[ C{{O}_{3}}^{2-} \right]\] was found to be \[1.2\times {{10}^{-3}}M.\] The concentration of \[{{F}^{-}}\] in the solution would be Given\[{{K}_{sp}}\,of\,SrC{{O}_{3}}=7.0\times {{10}^{-10}}{{M}^{2}}\], \[{{K}_{sp}}\]of \[Sr{{F}_{2}}=7.9\times {{10}^{-10}}{{M}^{3}}\]

    A) \[1.3\times {{10}^{-3}}M\]       

    B) \[2.6\times {{10}^{-2}}M\]

    C) \[3.7\times {{10}^{-2}}M\]       

    D) \[5.8\times {{10}^{-7}}M\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] The two \[{{K}_{sp}}\] values do not differ very much. So it is a case of simultaneous equilibria, where the concentration of any species cannot be neglected. \[\frac{\left[ S{{r}^{2+}} \right]{{\left[ {{F}^{-}} \right]}^{2}}}{\left[ S{{r}^{2+}} \right]\left[ CO_{3}^{2-} \right]}=\frac{{{K}_{s{{p}_{Sr{{F}_{2}}}}}}}{{{K}_{s{{p}_{SrC{{O}_{2}}}}}}}\] \[=\frac{7.9\times {{10}^{-10}}}{7.0\times {{10}^{-10}}}=1.128\] \[\therefore {{[{{F}^{-}}]}^{2}}=1.128\times 1.2\times {{10}^{-3}}=13.5\times {{10}^{-4}}\] \[\therefore \text{ }\left[ {{F}^{-}} \right]={{\left( 13.5\times {{10}^{-4}} \right)}^{1/2}}\] \[=3.674\times {{10}^{-2}}\approx 3.7\times {{10}^{-2}}M\]
