No ppt forms ... K_"sp" (=2.4 x 10^-5)Ksp(=2.4x105) > Q_"sp"(1.6x10^-5)Qsp(1.6x105)

Explanation:

20ml(0.01MCaCl_2) + 20ml(0.008MNa_2SO_4)20ml(0.01MCaCl2)+20ml(0.008MNa2SO4)
=> (0.02)(0.01)"mole" CaCl_2(0.02)(0.01)moleCaCl2 + (0.02)(0.008)"mole" Na_2SO_4(0.02)(0.008)moleNa2SO4
=> 0.0002"mole" CaCl_20.0002moleCaCl2 + 0.00016"mole"Na_2SO_40.00016moleNa2SO4

=> Na_2SO_4Na2SO4 is the limiting reagent => 1.6x10^-4"1.6x104 mole CaSO_4CaSO4

[CaSO_4][CaSO4] = 1.6x10^-4"1.6x104 "mole" CaSO_4moleCaSO4 / "0.040L Solution"0.040L Solution = 0.004M0.004M

0.004MCaSO_4 rightleftharpoonsCaSO4 +0.004M(Ca^(+2))(Ca+2) + 0.004M(SO_4^(2-))(SO24)

Q_(sp) = [Ca^(+3)][SO_4^(2-)] = (0.004M)(0.004M)Qsp=[Ca+3][SO24]=(0.004M)(0.004M) = 1.6x10^-51.6x105

K_(sp)=2.4x10^-5 > Q_(sp) = 1.6x10^-5Ksp=2.4x105>Qsp=1.6x105 => No Ppt will form.
