Solubility Constant Product Problem
« on: March 26, 2010, 03:05:11 AM »
Hello,
I have a quick question for anyone that can help, here is the question:

How many grams of PbI2 can be dissolved in 1000 mL of a 0.100 M KI solution at 25 oC?

I believe that for this problem I will need to use activity coefficients but can anyone tell me how you would set up this probelm?

Thank you so much in advance

Amount of PbI2 dissolved will be so small it won't change ionic strength. Neglect ions from PbI2 and calculate ionic strength as if they were not there.
