01-10-09 ammonia and AgCl in equilibrium

Given : Ag(NH3)2+→ Ag+ + 2NH3, Kc = 6.2 × 10–8 and Ksp of AgCl =1.8 × 10–10 at 298 K. If ammonia is added to a water solution containing excess of AgCI(s) only,. Calculate the concentration of the complex in 1.0 M aqueous ammonia..

Answer is √(Ksp/Kc)

AgCl \leftrightarrow Ag+ + Cl -

let at time of equlibrium [Ag]= y M
and [Cl]= x = slubility of AgCl

xy= Ksp .................. (1)

now

Ag+ + 2 NH3 \leftrightarrow Ag(NH3)2+ K=1/Kc

now [Ag(NH3)2+ ] = x-y M

=> x-y/y= K=1/Kc
neglecting change in conc. of NH3.

=> x/y= 1/Kc ............ (2)

solving one and two x = \sqrt{\frac{K_{sp}}{K_{c}}}
