The common ion effect

The common ion effect. Will a precipitate form when two solutions are mixed?. Worked example. 25 cm 3 0f 0.0020 mol dm -3 potassium chromate ( KCrO 4 ) are mixed with 75 cm 3 of 0.000125 mol dm -3 lead (II) nitrate. Will a precipitate of lead chromate form?

  1. The common ion effect Will a precipitate form when two solutions are mixed?

  2. Worked example 25 cm3 0f 0.0020 mol dm-3 potassium chromate ( KCrO4) are mixed with 75 cm3 of 0.000125 mol dm-3 lead (II) nitrate. Will a precipitate of lead chromate form? [ ksp lead(II) chromate = 1.8 x 10-14mol2 dm6]

  3. Step 1 Determine the ionic equation PbCrO4 (s) = Pb2+ (aq) + CrO42- (aq) ksp = [ Pb2+ ] [ CrO4 2- ]

  4. Step 2 Determine the initial concentrations of each ion when mixed [ CrO4 2- ] = 25/100 x 0.0020 mol dm-3 = 0.00050 mol dm-3

  5. Step 3 Similarly work out the concentration of the Pb2+(aq) Answer = 0.000938 mol dm-3

  6. Step 4 Multiply the two values from steps 2 and 3 Answer = 4.69 x 10-8 Ask : Is this greater than the numerical value for ksp ? Yes means a precipitate will form !
