Question

1) The solubility product of Cu(OH)2 is 4.8 x 10-20. Calculate the value of pCu2+, i.e., -log[Cu2+], in an aqueous NaOH solution that has a pH of 12.86 and is saturated with Cu(OH)2.

 

2) The equilibrium constant for the formation of Cu(CN)42- is 2.0 x 1030. Calculate the value of pCu2+, i.e. -log[Cu2+], if 2.46 g of CuCl2 is dissolved in 1.000 L of a 0.938 M NaCN solution. The addition of CuCl2 does not affect the volume (the final volume is always 1.000 L).
