a)

KCl

b)

Pb(CN)2

c)

Cu(NO3)2

d)

NH4NO3

7.

Sr(OH)2(s) ↔ Sr+2(aq) + 2OH-1(aq)

When HCl is added: H+(aq) + OH-1(aq) → H2O(l)

What effect does the addition of the acid have on the solubility of strontium hydroxide?

a)

the solubility increases because some of the OH-1 is removed and the equilibrium shifts to the left.

b)

the solubility increases because some of the OH-1 is removed and the equilibrium shifts to the right

c)

the solubility decreases because the hydroxide is removed

d)

the acid does not affect the solubility of the magnesium hydroxide

8.

BaF2(s) ↔ Ba+2(aq) + 2F-1(aq)

HF ↔ H+1(aq) + F-1(aq)

What would increase the solubility of barium fluoride?

a)

adding an acid because the hydrogen will react with the fluoride to form HF and the solubility equilibrium will shift to the right.

b)

adding barium nitrate because adding more barium will cause a shift to the left

c)

adding potassium fluoride because adding more fluoride will cause a shift to the left

9.

Zinc hydroxide is a sparingly soluble base. If you add sodium hydroxide to a solution of zinc hydroxide, what will happen?

a)

The addition will have limited impact.

b)

The solubility of zinc hydroxide will increase.

c)

The solubility of zinc hydroxide will decrease.

d)

We would need to know the molar concentrations of each substance in order to answer this question.

10.

Ag(OH)2(s ) ↔ Ag+1(aq) + 2OH-1(aq)

What shift in equilibrium causes a decrease in the solubility of silver hydroxide?

a)

a shift to the right because there are more ions

b)

a shift to the left because more of the solid means less has dissolved thus decreasing the solubility.
