ANSWER

s=1.0×10−4 Ms = 1.0 \times 10^{-4}\,\text{M}. Cube root of Ksp/4 yields s for 2:1 stoichiometry in pure water.

To minimize free fluoride in a mouth-rinse, a chemist considers adding CaCl2_2 to a solution in equilibrium with CaF2(s)\text{CaF}_2(s): CaF2(s)⇌Ca2++2F−\text{CaF}_2(s) \rightleftharpoons \text{Ca}^{2+} + 2\text{F}^-. At 25°C, Ksp=3.9×10−11K_{sp}=3.9\times10^{-11}. Which shift in equilibrium is most consistent with adding the common ion Ca2+\text{Ca}^{2+}?
