    Maldini Josnon
    This document describes an experiment to determine the solubility product constant (Ksp) of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2). The experiment involves titrating a saturated solution of Ca(OH)2 with hydrochloric acid to determine the concentration of hydroxide ions and calculate Ksp. It also examines the common ion effect by adding calcium chloride to another saturated Ca(OH)2 solution and observing a decrease in solubility. Students will perform the experiment, calculate Ksp values, and answer questions about solubility, equilibrium, and how various factors influence the results.

    EXPERIMENT 9

    SOLUBILITY, SOLUBILITY PRODUCT CONSTANT (KSP) AND COMMON ION EFFECT

    9.1 OBJECTIVES

    Upon completion of this experiment, students should be able to:

    1. determine the Ksp for certain hydroxide salt

    2. explain the effect of common ions which can influence in the solubility for certain salt

    3. differentiate between solubility and Ksp

    9.2 INTRODUCTION

    Certain ionic compounds such as Ca(OH)2 are slightly soluble in water. Therefore if we take
    some Ca(OH)2 and dissolve it in water and then we shake the solution we observed that some
    of the Ca(OH)2 do not dissolve in water. At this point we obtain a saturated solution. For a
    saturated solution we obtained an equilibrium between the solid Ca(OH)2, Ca2+and OH-.

    Ca(OH)2(s) → Ca2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq)

    The solubility product constant (Ksp) can be expressed as below:

    Ksp= [Ca 2+][OH-]2

    Common ion effect can be studied easily when adding another salt, where one of the ions is the
    same with the ion in the saturated solution. Suitable with Le Chatelier principal, if the addition of
    Ca2+(in the form of CaCl2.2H2O) into a saturated solution of Ca(OH)2,the concentration of Ca2+
    ion from Ca(OH)2 will decrease because the presence of Ca2+ ion from CaCl2.2H2O, shifted the
    equilibrium of the Ca(OH)2 solution to the left of the equation. Thus more precipitate of Ca(OH)2
    appeared in the solution As a result the solubility of Ca(OH)2 will be less in the presence of
    CaCl2.2H2O. Even though the cause of the common ion will reduce the solubility of the salt, the
    Ksp of the salt remain unchanged. In other word the Ksp remain the same when the same ion is
    added to the saturated solution. This experiment will give experience to student about equilibrium
    between solid materials which slightly soluble, and its saturated solution. Student will determine
    the concentration of saturated solution which have been prepared through titration with
    hydrochloric acid. Ksp of Ca(OH)2 can be determine from the concentration of hydroxide ion and
    calcium ion. Common ion effect to solubility of Ca(OH)2 also can be studied by the same way.
