SUMMARY

The molar concentration of Sr(CO3)3 can be calculated from its solubility product constant (Ksp) of 9.3 x 10^-10. The dissociation of Sr(CO3)3 into Sr and 3 CO3 ions must be balanced, leading to the expression Ksp = [Sr][CO3]^3. By substituting a variable for the concentration of Sr, one can derive the molar concentration of Sr(CO3)3.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Ksp (solubility product constant)
  • Knowledge of chemical equilibrium and dissociation equations
  • Ability to balance chemical equations
  • Familiarity with algebraic manipulation of equations
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the concept of solubility product constants (Ksp) in detail
  • Learn how to balance complex chemical equations
  • Explore the relationship between molar concentration and Ksp
  • Investigate examples of calculating molar concentrations from Ksp for different compounds
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, educators, and professionals involved in chemical analysis and solubility calculations.

What is the Molar Concentration of Sr(CO3)3 if Ksp=9.3 X10^-10

I believe you have to balance the equation and i got
Sr(CO3)3= Sr + 3 CO3

Yes... and you have to write out the expression for Ksp as well. And you have to plug in a variable into that expression.
