What is the minimum pH needed to prevent the precipitation of ZnS in a solution i.e. 0.01 M  ZnCl 2 and saturated with 0.1 M  H 2 S ?
Given:
K sp of ZnS =  10 −21
Ka of H 2 S =  10 −20

Answer:
1.00
Solution:

Ksp(ZnS)=[Zn2+][S2-]
S2-=KspZn2+=10-210.01=10-19
KH2S=H+2S-2H2S
10-20=H+210-190.1
H+=0.1
pH=-log.⁡H+
=1
