Consider reaction, CuBr (s) Cu + (aq) + Br - (aq) (1)
For above reaction, equilibrium constant is K sp = [ Cu + ] [Br - ] = 6.3 10 -09
When CuBr is added to solution containing ammonia , a complex formation reaction takes place due to which solubility of CuBr increases. Consider a complex formation reaction as shown below.
Cu + (aq) + 2 NH 3 (aq) [ Cu (NH 3 ) 2 ] + (aq) (2)
For above reaction, equilibrium constant is K f = [ Cu (NH 3 ) 2 ] + / [ Cu + ] [ NH 3 ] 2 = 6.3 10 10
Now , adding equation 1 and 2 , we get equation for dissolution of CuBr in the presence of NH 3
CuBr (s) Cu + (aq) + Br - (aq) + Cu + (aq) + 2 NH 3 (aq) [ Cu (NH 3 ) 2 ] + (aq) |
CuBr (s) + 2 NH 3 (aq) [ Cu (NH 3 ) 2 ] + (aq) + Br - (aq) |
For overall reaction, equilibrium constant K = K sp K f = 6.3 10 -09 6.3 10 10 = 3.97 10 2
Let's use ICE table.
Concentration (M) |
CuBr (s) |
2 NH 3 |
[ Cu (NH 3 ) 2 ] + |
Br - |
I | 0.64 | 0 | 0 | |
C | - 2 A | +A | +A | |
E | 0.64 - 2 A | A | A |
From above values , we can write
K f = ( A) ( A) / ( 0.64 - 2 A ) 2 = 3.97 10 2
A 2 / ( 0.64 - 2 A ) 2 = 3.97 10 2
A / 0.64 - 2 A = 19.92
A = 19.92 ( 0.64 -2 A )
A = 12.75 - 39.84 A
A + 39.84 A = 12.75
40.84 A = 12.75
A = 12.75 / 40.84 = 0.31 M = [ Br - ] = Solubility of CuBr in ammonia solution
Molar mass of CuBr = 63.54 + 79.91 = 143.45 g / mol
Solubility of CuBr in g / L = Solubility of CuBr in mol / L Molar mass of CuBr
Solubility of CuBr in g / L = 0.31 mol / L 143.45 g / mol = 44.46 g / L
ANSWER : Solubility of CuBr in 0.64 M ammonia solution = 44 g / L
