The equilibrium equation for the formation of the complex PbBr42- is: Pb2+ + 4 Br = PbBr42. Since PbBr42- is a typical complex, which of the following would you expect to be true? 1. The Kf value is small (- power of 10) 2. At equilibrium, there will be more PbBr42- than free Pb2+ and Br- 3. The Kf value is large (+ power of 10) 4. At equilibrium, there will be more free Pb²+ and Br than PbBr42- 3 and 4 only 2 and 3 only O 1 and 4 only O 2 only O 1 and 2 only

What is a complex ion? The stepwise formation constants for the complex ion Cu(NH3)42+ are K1 1 103, K2 1 104, K3 = 1 103, and K4 1 103. Write the reactions that refer to each of these formation constants. Given that the values of the formation constants are large, what can you deduce about the equilibrium concentration of Cu(NH3)42+ versus the equilibrium concentration of Cu2+?
Ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA4 ) is used as a complexing agent in chemical analysis with the structure shown in Fig. 21.7. Solutions of EDTA4 are used to treat heavy metal poisoning by removing the heavy metal in the form of a soluble complex ion. The complex ion virtually prevents the heavy metal ions from reacting with biochemical systems. The reaction of EDTA4 with Pb2+ is Pb2+(aq) + EDTA4(aq) iPbEDTA2(aq) K = 1.1 1018 Consider a solution with 0.010 mol of Pb(NO3)? added to 1.0 L of an aqueous solution buffered at pH = 13.00 and containing 0.050 M Na1EDTA.
