The correct Answer is:
To find the value of \( x \) in the overall equilibrium constant for the dissociation of \([Cu(NH_3)_4]^{2+}\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the formation reactions and their equilibrium constants The formation of the complex \([Cu(NH_3)_4]^{2+}\) occurs in four steps: 1. \( Cu^{2+} + NH_3 \overset{K_1}{\rightleftharpoons} [Cu(NH_3)]^{2+} \) with \( K_1 = 10^4 \) 2. \( [Cu(NH_3)]^{2+} + NH_3 \overset{K_2}{\rightleftharpoons} [Cu(NH_3)_2]^{2+} \) with \( K_2 = 1.58 \times 10^3 \) 3. \( [Cu(NH_3)_2]^{2+} + NH_3 \overset{K_3}{\rightleftharpoons} [Cu(NH_3)_3]^{2+} \) with \( K_3 = 5 \times 10^2 \) 4. \( [Cu(NH_3)_3]^{2+} + NH_3 \overset{K_4}{\rightleftharpoons} [Cu(NH_3)_4]^{2+} \) with \( K_4 = 10^2 \) ### Step 2: Calculate the overall formation constant The overall formation constant \( K_f \) for the complex \([Cu(NH_3)_4]^{2+}\) is the product of the individual formation constants: \[ K_f = K_1 \times K_2 \times K_3 \times K_4 \] Substituting the values: \[ K_f = (10^4) \times (1.58 \times 10^3) \times (5 \times 10^2) \times (10^2) \] ### Step 3: Perform the multiplication Calculating step by step: 1. \( K_1 \times K_2 = 10^4 \times 1.58 \times 10^3 = 1.58 \times 10^7 \) 2. \( K_3 \times K_4 = 5 \times 10^2 \times 10^2 = 5 \times 10^4 \) 3. Now multiply these two results: \[ K_f = (1.58 \times 10^7) \times (5 \times 10^4) = 7.9 \times 10^{11} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the dissociation constant The dissociation constant \( K_d \) is the reciprocal of the formation constant: \[ K_d = \frac{1}{K_f} = \frac{1}{7.9 \times 10^{11}} \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( K_d \) Calculating \( K_d \): \[ K_d \approx 1.27 \times 10^{-12} \] ### Step 6: Express \( K_d \) in the required form The question states that \( K_d \) can be expressed as \( x \times 10^{-12} \). From our calculation: \[ K_d \approx 1.27 \times 10^{-12} \] Thus, \( x \approx 1.27 \). ### Step 7: Round off to the nearest integer Rounding \( 1.27 \) gives us \( 1 \). ### Final Answer The value of \( x \) is \( \boxed{1} \). ---
