EFFECT OF ELECTROLYTES ON CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIA

H3AsO4 + 3I- + 2H+ H3AsO3 + I3- + H2O

The position of most solution equilibria depends on the electrolyte concentration of the medium, even when the added electrolyte contains no ion in common with those involved in the equilibrium.

Chemical Equilibrium Electrolyte Effects

Electrolytes: producing ions

1-Common 2-no common

Can electrolytes affect chemicalequilibria?

(A) “Common Ion Effect” Decreases solubility of BaSO4 with BaCl2Ba2+ is the “common ion”

(B) No common ion:

“inert electrolyte effect”or

“diverse ion effect”

920116......34 slides 6http:\\asadipour.kmu.ac.ir

920116......34 slides 7

Adding an “inert” salt to a sparingly soluble salt increases the solubility of the sparingly soluble salt.

“inert” salt = a salt whose ions do not react with (e.g., chelate, or precipitate) the compound of interest

The Salt Effect

Increases solubility of BaSO4 Why???shielding of dissociated ion species

Predicted effect of presense of Na2SO4 on solubility of

BaSO4.

Consider: BaSO4 Ba2+ + SO42-

BaSO4 (Ksp = 1.1x10-10) as the sparingly soluble salt and

NaNO3 → Na+ + NO3- as the “inert” salt.

The cation (Ba2+) is surrounded by anions (SO42-, NO3

-)net positive charge is reduced

attraction between oppositely charged ions (Ba2+, SO42-)

is decreased. Solubility is increased

How?

The anion (SO42-) is surrounded by cations (Ba2+, Na+)

net negative charge is reduced

Concentration v.s. Activity

• For many substances the active mass per unit volume is directly proportional to the concentration. ai≈Ci

...but the approximation of activity being equal to concentration will not accurately reflect the actual behavior of matter under all conditions.

• ai=Ci :is a reasonably valid approximation for an

Ionic Strength

• Ionic strength, , is a measure of the total ionic charges in solutions

where ci is the concentration of the iones species and zi is the associated charge.

Calculation of Activity Coefficients

• Requires the Debye-Hückel equation:

• z is the charge of the ion• a is the effective hydrated radius of

the ion (in nm)

m is the ionic strength of the solution

Activity coefficients for differently charged ions with a constant hydrated radius of 500pm.

1. As ionic strength increases, the activity coefficient decreases.

2. As the charge of the ion increases, the departure of its activity coefficient from unity increases. Activity corrections are much more important for an ion with a charge of 3 than one with the charge 1.

At high ionic strengths:

Activity coefficients of most ions increase

Concentrated salt solutions are not the same as dilute aqueous solutions

H+ in NaClO4 solution of varying ionic strengths

www.chem.wits.ac.za/chem212-213-280

In concentrated salt solutions g is dependent to type of ion

and interpretation is difficult.

In diluted salt solutions g is independent to type of ion
