The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the specific conductance of a saturated solution of AgBr after adding AgNO3. We will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the concentrations of ions in the solution 1. **Saturated Solution of AgBr**: The solubility product (Ksp) of AgBr is given as \( K_{sp} = 12 \times 10^{-14} \). - Let the solubility of AgBr be \( s \). Therefore, the concentration of \( \text{Ag}^+ \) ions is \( s \) and the concentration of \( \text{Br}^- \) ions is also \( s \). - The expression for Ksp is: \[ K_{sp} = [\text{Ag}^+][\text{Br}^-] = s^2 \] - Thus, we have: \[ s^2 = 12 \times 10^{-14} \implies s = \sqrt{12 \times 10^{-14}} = 3.464 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{M} \] 2. **Adding AgNO3**: When \( 10^{-7} \, \text{M} \) of AgNO3 is added, it dissociates completely: - \( \text{AgNO}_3 \rightarrow \text{Ag}^+ + \text{NO}_3^- \) - The concentration of \( \text{Ag}^+ \) ions from AgNO3 is \( 10^{-7} \, \text{M} \). - Therefore, the total concentration of \( \text{Ag}^+ \) ions in solution becomes: \[ [\text{Ag}^+] = s + 10^{-7} = 3.464 \times 10^{-7} + 10^{-7} = 4.464 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{M} \] - The concentration of \( \text{Br}^- \) ions remains \( s = 3.464 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{M} \). - The concentration of \( \text{NO}_3^- \) ions is \( 10^{-7} \, \text{M} \). ### Step 2: Calculate the molar conductivities 1. **Molar Conductivity Values**: - \( \lambda^{\circ}_{\text{Ag}^+} = 6 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{S m}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \) - \( \lambda^{\circ}_{\text{Br}^-} = 8 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{S m}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \) - \( \lambda^{\circ}_{\text{NO}_3^-} = 7 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{S m}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \) ### Step 3: Calculate the specific conductance (κ) 1. **Specific Conductance for Each Ion**: - For \( \text{Ag}^+ \): \[ \kappa_{\text{Ag}^+} = \lambda^{\circ}_{\text{Ag}^+} \times [\text{Ag}^+] = 6 \times 10^{-3} \times 4.464 \times 10^{-7} = 2.664 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{S m}^{-1} \] - For \( \text{Br}^- \): \[ \kappa_{\text{Br}^-} = \lambda^{\circ}_{\text{Br}^-} \times [\text{Br}^-] = 8 \times 10^{-3} \times 3.464 \times 10^{-7} = 2.7712 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{S m}^{-1} \] - For \( \text{NO}_3^- \): \[ \kappa_{\text{NO}_3^-} = \lambda^{\circ}_{\text{NO}_3^-} \times [\text{NO}_3^-] = 7 \times 10^{-3} \times 10^{-7} = 7 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{S m}^{-1} \] ### Step 4: Total Conductivity 1. **Total Conductivity**: \[ \kappa_{\text{total}} = \kappa_{\text{Ag}^+} + \kappa_{\text{Br}^-} + \kappa_{\text{NO}_3^-} \] \[ \kappa_{\text{total}} = 2.664 \times 10^{-9} + 2.7712 \times 10^{-9} + 7 \times 10^{-10} = 5.2052 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{S m}^{-1} \] ### Step 5: Convert to \( 10^{-7} \, \text{S m}^{-1} \) 1. **Expressing in terms of \( 10^{-7} \, \text{S m}^{-1} \)**: \[ \kappa_{\text{total}} = 5.2052 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{S m}^{-1} = 52.052 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{S m}^{-1} \] - Rounding gives us \( \approx 52 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{S m}^{-1} \). ### Final Answer The specific conductance of the solution is approximately **52 \( \times 10^{-7} \, \text{S m}^{-1} \)**.
