Relative solubilities
« on: December 12, 2011, 01:31:56 PM »
Hi. Last week i carried out a relatively boring prac involving titrating potassium hydrogen tartrate (KHT) in various concs of NaCl against 0.05M NaOH. The last part of the write up is to answer the following question:

If one added KHT to 0.05M KCl, do you think more or less KHT(s) would dissolve than for solution E?

Solution E being saturated KHT in 0.05M NaCl.

I imagine the answer is quite simple, but im at a blank to find any decent reasoning for an answer. Any help anyone?
Thanks alot
James

The common ion effect comes to my mind...
