Let the maximum concentration of each solution be x mol/L. After mixing, the volume of the concentrations of each solution will be reduced to half i.e., x/2.
∴ [FeSO4]= [Na2S]=x / 2
Then, [Fe2+]= [FeSO4]=x/ 2
Also, [S2−]= [Na2S]=x/2
FeS (x)↔Fe2+ (aq)+S2− (aq)
Ksp= [Fe2+] [S2−]
= >6.3×10−18= (x/2) (x/2)
x2/4=6.3×10−18
⇒x= 5.02×10−9
If the concentrations of both solutions are equal to or less than 5.02×10−9M, then there will be no precipitation of iron sulphide.
