Question
iron(ll) carbonate (feco₃) has a solubility product constant of 3.13 × 10⁻¹¹. calculate the molar solubility of feco₃ in water
Step1: Escribir la ecuación de disolución
Step2: Definir la solubilidad molar
Sea \(s\) la solubilidad molar de \(\text{FeCO}_3\). Entonces, \([\text{Fe}^{2 +}]=s\) y \([\text{CO}_3^{2 -}]=s\)
Step3: Escribir la expresión de \(K_{sp}\)
$$K_{sp}=[\text{Fe}^{2 +}][\text{CO}_3^{2 -}]$$
Sustituyendo \(K_{sp} = 3.13\times10^{-11}\), \([\text{Fe}^{2 +}]=s\) y \([\text{CO}_3^{2 -}]=s\) en la ecuación:
$$3.13\times 10^{-11}=s\times s=s^{2}$$
Step4: Calcular \(s\)
$$s=\sqrt{3.13\times 10^{-11}}=\sqrt{31.3\times 10^{-12}}\approx5.59\times 10^{-6}\text{ M}$$
