Buffer Solutions
A buffer is a solution that “resists” a change in pH
E.g. blood contains substances that keep its pH fixed at 7.3
- important for life functions
Buffer solutions consist of either:
A weak acid + salt of its conjugate base
or
A weak base + salt of its conjugate acid

SOLUBILITY
Solubility: quantity of a substance that dissolves to form a
saturated solution
Solubility:
g/L
Molar solubility:
mole/L
Some salts are very soluble (> 0.1 M). Recall solubility rules.
Some salts are sparingly soluble (< 0.1 M) sometimes
referred to as ‘insoluble’.

equilibrium in water

SOLUBILITY EQUILIBRIA
• Precipitation
Ag+(aq) + Cl(aq)  AgCl(s)
• Dissolution
AgCl(s)  Ag+(aq) + Cl(aq)
At equilibrium when forward rate = backward rate
AgCl(s)
Ag+(aq) + Cl(aq)
Keq = [Ag+][Cl]/ [AgCl(s)]
Keq [AgCl(s)] = [Ag+][Cl]

SOLUBILITY CALCULATION
Calculate [Ca2+] and [F-] for a saturated CaF2 solution.
CaF2 (s)  Ca+2 (aq) +2F (aq)
Ksp = [Ca2+][F]2 =3.9 x 1011 at 25oC
What is the solubility?
solubility = amount of CaF2 dissociated
COMMON ION EFFECT
[Ag+]
precipitation
saturation
dissolution
[Cl-]
If Q = [Ag+][Cl-] > Ksp, AgCl precipitates
(Ion product > solubility product)
If [Ag+][Cl-] < Ksp; AgCl dissolves
When [Ag+][Cl-] = Ksp, the solution is saturated
Adding either [Ag+] or [Cl-] will precipitate AgCl(s)
SOLUBILITY CALCULATION
Common Ion Effect
What about CaF2 in 0.01 M NaF solution?
[F] = 0.01 M Ksp = 3.9 x 1011
CaF2(s)  Ca2+(aq) + 2F(aq)
Water Chemistry (Ch. 18.5-6)
Water in State College/UP Campus
Predominantly well water
23 wells + 1 open reservoir
[Ca2+ ] 165-185 ppm
10-15 ppm
Mixed to reduce water hardness
• Cl2 injected to kill bacteria
• F- added
• Alum (K2SO4.Al2(SO4)3.24H2O) added to improve clarity
• NaOH added to neutralize pH
Remediation of Water
Ca2+ (hard water), Pb2+ (toxic) are precipitated by CO32Ksp
CaCO3
8.7 x 10-9
PbCO3
3.3 x 10-14
Which compound(s) could we use to supply CO32-?
How much do we need to add ?
If we add a stoichiometric amount of Na2CO3,
[Ca2+] = [CO32-] = Ksp1/2
[Ca2+] = 3 x 10-3 M
2.9 x 10-3 mol/L x 40 g/mol x 1000 mg/g = 116 mg/L
(116 ppm)
If [CO32-] = 3 mM, what is [Pb2+]?
[Pb2+] = Ksp/[CO32-] = 3.3 x 10-14/3 x 10-3 = 1 x 10-11 M
= 2 parts per trillion
Effect of pH
What is the solubility of Mg(OH)2 in pure water?
Ksp = 1.8 x 10-11
What is the solubility of Mg(OH)2 in a solution
with a pH of 9?
Effect of pH on common ions
If either the anion or the cation is involved in an acid base
equilibrium, then it is a common ion problem.
•Basic metal hydroxides
Low pH increases solubility e.g., Mg(OH)2
•Salts of weakly basic anions
Low pH increases solubility
examples (write out equilibria for practice)

AMPHOTERIC METAL HYDROXIDES
There are amphoteric hydroxides of
Al3+ Cr3+ Zn2+ Sn2+ and many transition metal
ions
Al(OH)3 , Cr(OH)3 , Zn(OH)2 , Sn(OH)2 , …
Dissolution involves formation of complex ions:
Al(OH)3(OH2)3 (s)
+ H+  Al(OH)2(OH2)4+
+ OH  Al(OH) (OH ) 
