Question

Calculate the solubility of Mercury (II) iodide (HgI2)(HgI2) when a 3.0 M solution of NaI is added, assuming (HgI4)2−(HgI4)2− is the only Hg-containing species present in significant amounts.

Ksp=2.9x10−29Ksp=2.9x10−29 for HgI2HgI2 and Kf = 6.8x1029Kf = 6.8x1029 for (HgI4)2−(HgI4)2−.

Kf = 6.8x1029
