CHEM1102 - Resources - Resources for Week 11
Topics and Learning Outcomes
Solubility Equilibrium
identify what determines solubility in terms of bonding forces
construct K sp from the chemical equation for dissolution
calculate solubility from K sp values for salts according to their formula
use the ionic product, Q , to predict whether dissolution or precipitation will occur
apply the common ion effect qualititatively and quantitatively using K sp and Q
Metal Complexes
define complex, ligand and coordinate bond
recognize that hydrolysis of metal ions in aqueous solutions gives rise to acidic solutions and predict their relative acidity
recognize chelate ligands, their donor atoms and the stability of their complexes
name coordination complexes and compounds using IUPAC nomenclature
identify isomers including structural, geometrical and optical isomerism for tetrahedral, square planar and octahedral complexes
write down the form of the stability constant, K stab , for a complex
recognize and predict how the formation of stable complexes can increase the apparent solubility of salts by combining K sp and K stab expressions
