13.3 Exercise 16

Avg difficulty 2.5

Suggest two ways in which the equilibrium concentration of Ag+ can be reduced in a solution of Na+, Cl−, Ag+, and NO3−,\text{NO}_{3} ^{−} , in contact with solid AgCl.
Na+(aq)+Cl−(aq)+Ag+(aq)+NO3−(aq)⇌AgCl(s)+Na+(aq)+NO3−(aq)\text{Na}^{+} \left(a q\right) + \text{Cl}^{−} \left(a q\right) + \text{Ag}^{+} \left(a q\right) + \text{NO}_{3} ^{−} \left(a q\right) \rightleftharpoons \text{AgCl} \left(s\right) + \text{Na}^{+} \left(a q\right) + \text{NO}_{3} ^{−} \left(a q\right)
ΔH=−65.9kJ\Delta H = −65.9 \text{kJ}
