Determine the solubility of FeS at 25 degrees Celsius

3 answers

FeS ==> Fe^2+ + S^2-

Ksp = (Fe^2+)(S^=)
Look up the Ksp for FeS, set up an ICE chart, substitute into the Ksp expression and solve for the solubility.
What is an ICE chart?
If we let x stand for the solubility of FeS, then x is the concn of iron(II) and x is the concn of S^2-.
................FeS ==> Fe^2+ + S^2-
initial...................0......0
change....................x.......x
equil.....................x.......x

I stands for initial
C stands for change
E stands for equilibrium.
I have set one up above for you.
So you substitute x for (Fe^2+) and x for (S^2-), and whatever you find in your text for Ksp FeS, and solve for x.
