(choose chapter or problem)

a. Using the Ksp for Cu(OH)2 (1.6 3 10219) and the overall formation constant for Cu(NH3)4 21 (1.0 3 1013), calculate a value for the equilibrium constant for the reaction Cu(OH)2(s) 1 4NH3(aq) 34 Cu(NH3)4 21(aq) 1 2OH2(aq) b. Use the value of the equilibrium constant you calculated in part a to calculate the solubility (in mol/L) of Cu(OH)2 in 5.0 M NH3. In 5.0 M NH3, the concentration of OH2 is 0.0095 M.
