2 [Turn Over 1. Planning (P) The solubility of solid lead iodate ( V), Pb(IO3)2, in water is low. When a sample of this salt is mixed with water, a small amount dissolves and an equilibrium between the solid salt and its aqueous ions is established. Pb(IO3)2(s) Pb2+(aq) + 2IO3 -(aq) Ksp = [Pb2+][IO3 -]2 mol3 dm-9 The concentration of iodate (V) ions present in the saturated solution is described as follows: Iodine is liberated when excess potassium iodide, K I, is added to an acidified solution containing iodate (V) ions. IO3 -(aq) + 5I-(aq) + 6H+(aq) → 3I2(aq) + 3H2O(l) The liberated iodine can then be reacted with a standard solution of sodium thiosulfate. 2S2O3 2-(aq) + I2(aq) → 2I-(aq) + S4O6 2-(aq) You are to design a titrimetric experiment to determine the solubility product of lead iodate (V). 1157
3 [Turn Over 1. (a) You are provided the following: Solid lead iodate (V) Solid potassium iodide 1 mol dm -3 hydrochloric acid 0.0200 mol dm -3 sodium thiosulfate Starch indicator Distilled water And any other standard laboratory apparatus. Describe, step-by-step (including quantities of reagents used), the procedure involved in your experiment. [4] (b) Suggest one possible error that may occur during the experiment. [1] 1158
4 [Turn Over 1. (c) Calculate the solubility product of lead iodate ( V) given that 25.0 cm 3 of the saturated solution requires v cm3 of Na2S2O3. [3] 1159
5 [Turn Over 1. (d) A solution contains a mixture of chloride ions and iodide ions. You are provided with the reagents HCl (aq), NH3 (aq), AgNO3 (aq), HNO3 (aq) and distilled water together with test tubes, a filter funnel and filter papers. Devise a sequence of steps by which, using only the above materials, the two anions could be separately obtained as precipitates. Test Expected Observations Deduction
