PbI2(s ) Pb(aq)2+ + 2I(aq)

K = [Pb2+ ][I− ]2

ΔGo = 46.1 kJ/mol ⇒ [Pb2+ ] = 1.14 ×10−3 M

measured: [Pb2+ ] = 1.37 ×10−3 M

K = e−ΔGo /RT

Explain  the  difference

solute(water) solute(octanol)

log(Pwo)  =  3.37  

ΔGo = −19.2 kJ/mol

What  is  the  most  probable  sign  of  ΔSo  and  why?

CH3COOH CH3COO− + H+

pKa = − log Ka( )

Ka =[CH3COO

− ][H+ ][CH3COOH]

the  pKa  in  water  is  4.76.    Is  the  pKa  higher  or  lower  DMSO  and  why?
