The solubility of AgCl s in water at 25C is 133 105 molL and
The solubility of AgCl (s) in water at 25C is 1.33 *10^-5 mol/L and its Delta H of solution is 65.7 kJ/mol.
What is its solubility at 41.8C?
Solution
dG = -RT ln K sp , at 25C =298 K
Ksp =[Ag+][Cl-] =s^2= (1.33x10^ -5)^2 = 1.77 x10^ -10 ,
dG = -8.314x298 x2.3 log(1.77 x10^ -10)
= 55571 Joules,
dG = dH-TdS ,
55571= 65700-298 xdS , dS = 33.99,
at 41.8C = 314.8 K
dG = 65700-(314.8x33.99) = 55000 ,
now 55000 = -8.314x314.8 lnKsp
Ksp = 7.47 x10^ -10 =s^2,
s=solubility = 2.73 x10^ -5 mol/L
