Answer:
Explanation:
Mixing Ammonia gas into a solution of Copper(II) Sulfate will give Ammonium Sulfate and a precipitate of Copper(II) Hydroxide (Cu(OH)₂). The Ksp of Cu(OH)₂ is published => 2.2 x 10⁻²². Such gives a solubility* of the Cu(OH)₂ to be ~1.77 x 10⁻⁷M => [Cu⁺²] ~1.77 x 10⁻⁷M and [OH⁻] = 2(1.77 x 10⁻⁷)M = 3.53 x 10⁻⁷M. The reaction of Ammonium Hydroxide and Copper(II) Sulfate will generate 1 x 10⁻⁴ mole Cu(OH)₂ as a precipitate but only 1.77 x 10⁻⁷ mole of the hydroxide will remain in 1 Liter of solution b/c of extreme limited solubility.
*Solubility of 1:2 ionization ratio salts = CubeRt(Ksp/4).
