The correct Answer is:
To calculate the ratio of the molarities of the saturated solutions of `Ag2CrO4` and `AgBr`, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the dissociation equations and expressions for Ksp 1. **For `Ag2CrO4`:** - Dissociation: \[ Ag_2CrO_4 (s) \rightleftharpoons 2 Ag^+ (aq) + CrO_4^{2-} (aq) \] - Let the solubility of `Ag2CrO4` be \( S_1 \). Therefore, the concentration of \( Ag^+ \) will be \( 2S_1 \) and the concentration of \( CrO_4^{2-} \) will be \( S_1 \). - The expression for the solubility product constant \( K_{sp} \) is: \[ K_{sp} = [Ag^+]^2 [CrO_4^{2-}] = (2S_1)^2 (S_1) = 4S_1^3 \] 2. **For `AgBr`:** - Dissociation: \[ AgBr (s) \rightleftharpoons Ag^+ (aq) + Br^- (aq) \] - Let the solubility of `AgBr` be \( S_2 \). Therefore, the concentration of both \( Ag^+ \) and \( Br^- \) will be \( S_2 \). - The expression for the solubility product constant \( K_{sp} \) is: \[ K_{sp} = [Ag^+] [Br^-] = S_2^2 \] ### Step 2: Substitute the given Ksp values and solve for S1 and S2 1. **For `Ag2CrO4`:** - Given \( K_{sp} = 1.1 \times 10^{-12} \): \[ 1.1 \times 10^{-12} = 4S_1^3 \] - Rearranging gives: \[ S_1^3 = \frac{1.1 \times 10^{-12}}{4} \] \[ S_1^3 = 2.75 \times 10^{-13} \] - Taking the cube root: \[ S_1 = \left(2.75 \times 10^{-13}\right)^{1/3} \approx 0.65 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{M} \] 2. **For `AgBr`:** - Given \( K_{sp} = 5.0 \times 10^{-13} \): \[ 5.0 \times 10^{-13} = S_2^2 \] - Rearranging gives: \[ S_2 = \sqrt{5.0 \times 10^{-13}} \approx 7.07 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{M} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the ratio of the solubilities Now we need to find the ratio of the solubilities \( \frac{S_1}{S_2} \): \[ \frac{S_1}{S_2} = \frac{0.65 \times 10^{-4}}{7.07 \times 10^{-7}} \approx 91.9 \] ### Final Answer: The ratio of the molarities of their saturated solutions is approximately **91.9**. ---
