Trang 2The Effect of Electrolytes on Chemical Equilibrium
The concentrations and charge strength of
“spectator” or non-reacting electrolytes
The tendency to form precipitates will be
decreased with increasing ionic strength
1) interactions (but not necessarily reactions)
of the reactant species with other charged
species
2) interactions of the charged product species with the spectator ions.
Trang 3Examples:
> AgCl (s) <==> Ag* + CI-
K,,, increases with increasing ionic strength, so AgCl becomes more soluble
> H,O + HCO, <===> H,O* + HCO.-
K,, Increases with increasing ionic strength, so the solution becomes more acidic.

Trang 10Effect of Ionic Strength
» Dependent on
1) concentrations 2) charges
» Independent on
The chemical properties of the ions
Therefore, the effect of ionic strength on a reaction (e.g.,
solubility or dissociation constant) is not dependent on the types of spectator ions, but on the concentration and
charges of spectator ions.

Trang 17Properties of Activity Coefficients
A Rule I: (Figure 8-1)
¢ As ionic strength increases, its activities coefficient (y) decreases
¢ At moderate ionic strengths, y < 1
¢ As the solution approaches infinite dilution, y ~ 1
and hence a ~ [X] and K ~ K’
¢ At high ionic strengths (u > 0.1 M), the activity
coefficients often increase and may even become larger
than unity
B Rule II: (Table 8-1)
In solutions that are not too concentrated (u < 0.1 M), the activity coefficient for a given species 1s
independent of the types of electrolyte and dependent
only upon the ionic strength.
Trang 19Properties of Activity coefficients
C Rule III
an ion departs farther from unity as the charge of the
species increase (Fig 3)
> The activity coefficient of an uncharged molecule is
approximately unity, regardless of ionic strength
D Rule IV
At a given ionic strength, the activity coefficients
of ions of the same charge are approximately the same There are exceptions (Table 8-1)
