An acidified solution of 0.05MZn2+0 . 05M{Zn}^{2 +} is saturated with 0.1MH2S0 . 1M{H}_{2}S. What is the minimum molar concentration (M)( M ) of H+{H}^{+} required to prevent the precipitation of ZnSZnS? Use Ksp(ZnS)=1.25×10−22{K}_{sp} ( ZnS ) = 1 . 25 \times {10}^{- 22} and overall dissociation constant of H2S,KNET=K1K2=1×10−21{H}_{2}S, {K}_{NET} = {K}_{1}{K}_{2} = 1 \times {10}^{- 21}

Correct answer

0.2

Step-by-step solution

For ZnSZnS

Ksp(ZnS)=[Zn2+]×[S2−]=1.25×10−22{K}_{sp} ( ZnS ) = \left[{Zn}^{2 +}\right] \times \left[{S}^{2 -}\right] = 1 . 25 \times {10}^{- 22}

=0.05×[S2−]=1.25×10−22= 0 . 05 \times \left[{S}^{2 -}\right] = 1 . 25 \times {10}^{- 22}

\left[{S}^{2 -}\right] = 25 \times {10}^{- 22}</p><p>For</p><p>For{H}_{2}S</p><p></p><p>\mathop{{\text{H}_{2}\text{S}_{0 .1 M} ⇌ 2{\text{H}}^{+} + \mathop{{\text{S}}^{2 -}}_{25 \times {10}^{- 22}}</p><p></p><p>{K}_{a} = \dfrac{\left[{H}^{'}\right]\left[{S}^{2 -}\right]}{\left[{H}_{2}S\right]} = 1 \times {10}^{- 21}</p><p></p><p>= \dfrac{{\left[{H}^{+}\right]}^{2} \times 25 \times {10}^{- 22}}{0 . 1} = 1 \times {10}^{- 21}</p><p></p><p>{\left[{H}^{+}\right]}^{2} = \dfrac{1}{25}</p><p>[H+]=15</p><p>\left[{H}^{+}\right] = \dfrac{1}{5}

\left[{H}^{+}\right] = 0 . 2M$
