Chapter 16 Problem 87

Question

What mass of Ca(NO3)2 must be added to 1.0 L of a 1.0 M HF solution to begin precipitation of CaF2(s)? For CaF2, Ksp 4.0 1011 and Ka for HF 7.2 104 . Assume no volume change on addition of Ca(NO3)2(s).

Solution

Step 1 of 3)

The first step in solving 16 problem number 89 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: What mass of Ca(NO3)2 must be added to 1.0 L of a 1.0 M HF solution to begin precipitation of CaF2(s)? For CaF2, Ksp 4.0 1011 and Ka for HF 7.2 104 . Assume no volume change on addition of Ca(NO3)2(s).
From the textbook chapter Solubility and Complex Ion Equilibria you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
