Answer:
Answers are in the explanation
Explanation:
Ksp of CdF₂ is:
CdF₂(s) ⇄ Cd²⁺(aq) + 2F⁻(aq)
Ksp = 6.44x10⁻³ = [Cd²⁺] [F⁻]²
When an excess of solid is present, the solution is saturated, the molarity of Cd²⁺ is X and F⁻ 2X:
6.44x10⁻³ = [X] [2X]²
6.44x10⁻³ = 4X³
X = 0.1172M
Ksp of LiF is:
LiF(s) ⇄ Li⁺(aq) + F⁻(aq)
Ksp = 1.84x10⁻³ = [Li⁺] [F⁻]
When an excess of solid is present, the solution is saturated, the molarity of Li⁺ and F⁻ is XX:
1.84x10⁻³ = [X] [X]
1.84x10⁻³ = X²
X = 0.0429
