After mixing an excess PbCl2 with a fixed amount of water, it is found that the equilibrium concentration of Pb2 is

Ksp = 8.8x10⁻⁵

Explanation:

Full question is:

After mixing an excess PbCl2 with a fixed amount of water, it is found that the equilibrium concentration of Pb2+ is 2.8 × 10–2 M. What is Ksp for PbCl2?

When an excess of PbCl₂ is added to water, Pb²⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are produced following Ksp equilibrium:

PbCl₂(s) ⇄ Pb²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

Ksp = [Pb²⁺] [Cl⁻]²

If an excess of PbCl₂ was added, an amount of Pb²⁺ is produced (X) and twice Pb²⁺ is produced as Cl⁻ (2X):

Ksp = [X] [2X]²

Ksp = 4X³

As X is the amount of Pb²⁺ = 2.8x10⁻²M:

Ksp = 4(2.8x10⁻²)³
