Given that the Kf for [Ni(H2O)5(NH3)]2+ is 501 and Ka for NH4+ is 2.0 x 10-5, what is the equilibrium constant for the following reaction: Ni2+(aq) + NH4+(aq) D [Ni(H2O)5(NH3)]2+ + H+(aq) In a solution of 0.010 M Ni2+ and 0.010 M NH4+, will this reaction favor products or reactants at pH=1? pH=7? pH=12?
