The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the concentration of bromide ions \([Br^-]\) at equilibrium after adding excess solid AgCl to a 0.1 M solution of bromide ions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reaction**: When AgCl is added to the solution, it can react with bromide ions to form AgBr and Cl⁻ ions. The reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{AgCl (s)} + \text{Br}^- \rightleftharpoons \text{AgBr (s)} + \text{Cl}^- \] 2. **Initial Concentrations**: - Initial concentration of \([Br^-] = 0.1 \, M\) - Initial concentration of \([Cl^-] = 0 \, M\) (since it is produced from the reaction) 3. **Change in Concentrations**: - Let \(x\) be the amount of bromide ions that reacts. - At equilibrium, the concentration of bromide ions will be \(0.1 - x\) and the concentration of chloride ions will be \(x\). 4. **Determine Cell Potential**: - The cell potential \(E_{cell}\) can be calculated using the reduction potentials provided: \[ E_{cell} = E_{cathode} - E_{anode} = E_{AgCl} - E_{AgBr} = 0.222 \, V - 0.095 \, V = 0.127 \, V \] 5. **Nernst Equation**: - The Nernst equation relates the cell potential to the concentrations of the ions: \[ E_{cell} = \frac{0.059}{n} \log \left( \frac{[Cl^-]}{[Br^-]} \right) \] where \(n = 1\) (since one electron is involved in the reaction). 6. **Substituting Values**: - Substitute \(E_{cell} = 0.127 \, V\) and the concentrations: \[ 0.127 = \frac{0.059}{1} \log \left( \frac{x}{0.1 - x} \right) \] 7. **Solving for the Logarithm**: - Rearranging gives: \[ \log \left( \frac{x}{0.1 - x} \right) = \frac{0.127}{0.059} \approx 2.152 \] 8. **Exponentiating**: - Using the property of logarithms: \[ \frac{x}{0.1 - x} = 10^{2.152} \approx 142 \] 9. **Setting Up the Equation**: - This leads to: \[ x = 142(0.1 - x) \] \[ x = 14.2 - 142x \] \[ 143x = 14.2 \] \[ x \approx 0.09929 \, M \] 10. **Finding \([Br^-]\) at Equilibrium**: - Now, substituting \(x\) back to find \([Br^-]\): \[ [Br^-] = 0.1 - x \approx 0.1 - 0.09929 \approx 0.00071 \, M \] ### Final Answer: The concentration of bromide ions \([Br^-]\) at equilibrium is approximately \(0.00071 \, M\).
