Calculating the Concentrations of Complex Ions
Problem: A chemist converts Ag(H2O)2+ to the more stable form Ag(NH3)2+ by mixing 50.0 L of 0.0020 M Ag(H2O)2+ and 25.0 L of 0.15 M NH3. What is the final [Ag(H2O)2+]? Kf Ag(NH3)2+ = 1.7 x 107.
Plan: Write the equation and the Kf expression, set up the table for the calculation, then substitute into Kf and solve.
