The solubility constant of agbr is 5.0 x 10-13. the formation constant of the silver(i) ammonia complex, ag(nh3)2, is 1.6 x 107 calculate the solubility, in moles/l, of agbr in 1.00 mammonia solution.

S AgBr = 2.82 E-3 mol/L

Explanation:

∴ Ksp = [ Ag+ ] * [ Br- ] = 5.0 E-13

∴ Kf = 1.6 E7 = α[Ag(NH3)2]+ / ( αAg+ )*( αNH3 )²

∴ C NH3(sln) = 1.00 M

from (1) + (2):

                             1 M                     0                       0

                            1 - 2x                   x                        x

∴ K = Ksp*Kf = ( 5.0 E-13 )*( 1.6 E7 ) = 8.0 E-6

⇒ K = ( [ Br- ] * [ Ag(NH3)2+] ) / [ NH3 ]² = 8.0 E-6

⇒ K = (( x )*( x )) / ( 1 - 2x ) = 8.0 E-6

⇒ x² = 8.0 E-6*( 1- 2x )

⇒ x² + 1.6 E-5x - 8.0 E-6 = 0

⇒ x = 2.82 E-3 M

⇒ [ Br- ] = [ AgBr ] = 2.82 E-3 M

the potential energy of the reactants is 200j.

from the energy diagram, the energy of the product formed is 350j; this means that, this reaction is an endothermic reaction, because it absorbs energy from its environment.

aquifers are bounded above and below by impermeable rock. the driving force of groundwater movement in confined aquifers is pressure, rather than gravity.
