Question
A student adds 0.20 mol LiI to 1.00L copper (I) nitrate. which of the following is correct? Ksp = 1 x 10^-12 for CuI.
Explain your choice.
A) the presence of LiI will raise the solubility of CuNO3
b) Copper (I) iodide precipitates until the solution is saturated
c) One must know Ksp for copper (I) nitrate to make meaningful predictions on this system
d) The solubility of copper (I) iodide is increased by the presence of additional iodide ions
e) the solution is unsaturated and no precipitate forms.
Explanation / Answer
b) copper idoide precipitates until soluin gets saturated
