100mL of 0.010MBaClX2 is mixed with 100mL of 0.010MNaX2SOX4 (Ksp of BaSOX4=1.1×10−10; molar mass 233gmol−1). Choose the correct statement(s).
AA precipitate of BaSOX4 forms
BThe equilibrium [BaX2+] is close to 1.0×10−5M (within 10 percent)
CAbout 0.23 g of BaSOX4 is obtained (to two decimals)
DNo BaX2+ remains in solution
Answer: A, B, C
After mixing, [BaX2+]=[SOX4X2−]=0.005M; the product 2.5×10−5 far exceeds Ksp, so 1.0 mmol of BaSOX4 (0.233g) precipitates almost completely. The amounts are equal, so the remaining solution is saturated: [BaX2+]=Ksp=1.0×10−5M, which is not zero.
