Answer to Problem 16.69QP

Solution:

The concentration of nickel ion complex in the aqueous solution of ammonia is 0.001M_ .

Explanation of Solution

Given

The number of moles of Ni(NO3)2 is 0.00100mol .

The number of moles of NH3 is 0.500mol .

The total volume of the solution is 1.0L .

The molar concentration is calculated by the formula,

Molarconcentration=NumberofmolesVolumeofsolution (1)

Substitute the value of number of moles of Ni(NO3)2 and the volume of the solution in equation (1).

Molarconcentration=0.00100mol1.0L=0.001M

Substitute the value of number of moles of NH3 and the volume of the solution in equation (1).

Molarconcentration=0.500mol1.0L=0.5M

Nickel nitrate on dissolving in the aqueous solution of ammonia forma a complex ion with ammonia as,

Ni2++6NH3Ni(NH3)62+

The complex ion formation constant, Kf , of Ni(NH3)62+ is 5.5×108 .

The concentration of formation of Ni(NH3)62+ complex is assumed to be x .

The ICE table for the formation of Ni(NH3)62+ is given as,

Ni2++6NH3Ni(NH3)62+Initial(M):0.0010.50Change(M):xx+xFinal(M):0.001x0.5xx

The complex ion formation constant is given by the formula,

Kf=[Ni(NH3)62+][Ni2+][NH3]6

Substitute the value of Kf , [Ni(NH3)62+] , [Ni2+] and [NH3] in the above equation.

5.5×108=x0.001x(0.5x)6

The value of x is neglected since its value is very small compared to 0.5 .

Therefore, the above equation becomes,

5.5×108=x0.001x(0.5)68.6×106×(0.001x)=x8.6×1038.6×106x=xx=0.001M_

The concentration of Ni(NH3)62+ is same as the concentration of Ni(H2O)62+

Therefore, the concentration of Ni(H2O)62+ is 0.001M_ .

Conclusion:

The concentration of in Ni(H2O)62+ the aqueous solution of ammonia is 0.001M_
