1. Experiment 8Solubility of CaSO4
2. Purpose To accurately determine the Ksp of CaSO4.
3. Background Solubility Equilibria
CaSO4(s) D Ca2+(aq) + SO42-(aq)
4. Background Solubility Equilibria
CaSO4(s) D Ca2+(aq) + SO42-(aq)
5. Background Solubility Equilibria
CaSO4(s) D Ca2+(aq) + SO42-(aq)
6. Background Solubility Equilibria
CaSO4(s) D Ca2+(aq) + SO42-(aq)
7. Background Solubility Equilibria
CaSO4(s) D Ca2+(aq) + SO42-(aq)
The challenge is measuring the concentration of Ca2+ and SO42-.
An indirect method is to exchange one of the ions in the equilibrium with a substance that is more easily measured.
For this experiment, Ca2+ will be exchanged for H+.
This is called cation exchange.

38. Safety The NaOH solutions are corrosive. If you get some on your skin, wash with water for at least five minutes. If any NaOH solution gets in the eyes IMMEDIATELY wash with water for at least fifteen minutes. Call for medical assistance!
The 1.5 M H2SO4 is corrosive. If you spill some on you, wash the affected area for five minutes. If the acid gets in the eyes, wash the eyes for ten minutes. Seek immediate medical attention! Neutralize any acid spills with baking soda.
39. Waste Disposal All wastes from this experiment can be flushed down the drain with plenty of running water.
