Answer:

= 0.030 M

Explanation:

We can take x to be the concentration in mol/L of Ag2SO4 that dissolves  

Therefore;  concentration of  Ag+ is 2x mol/L and that of SO4^2- x mol/L.

Ksp = 1.4 x 10^-5

Ksp = [Ag+]^2 [SO42-]

      = (2x)^2(x)

      = 4x^3  

Thus;

4x^3  = 1.4 x 10^-5

         = 0.015 M

molar solubility = 0.015 M

But;

[Ag+]= 2x

Hence; silver ion concentration is

= 2 x 0.015 M

= 0.030 M
