Question

The fictitious complex M(SCN)2 can be produced from an aqueous equilibrium in which the M2+ ion is mixed with thiocyanate ion. A solution containing initial concentrations of M2+ and SCN are 0.000100 M and 0.000300 M
 respectively has an equilibrium concentration of M(SCN)2 of 
1.00 ×10−5 M.

 
What are the equilibrium concentrations of the two starting ions and what is the value of the equilibrium constant?
 
 
[M2+]=
