Determine the binding constant for metal ligand complex

You work for a biotechnical company that has developed a new ligand, codenamed 'Ligand L'. The ligand binds to silver ion through the following reaction:

Ag⁺ + ligand L --> Ag_ligandL_Complex K_bind = ???

The virtual lab below contains a 1.00M flask of 'Ligand L' along with a bottle of solid silver chloride. Perform an experiment in the virtual lab to determine the binding constant for this ligand (K_bind for the above reaction).

Note that the "solution viewer" in the virtual lab has been configured to show only the solids present in a solution vessel. (The concentration viewer has been disabled for this activity.) You will need to use your knowldedge of solubility to determine tthe binding constant. The Ksp for Silver Chloride is: 1.830e-10.

Experimental part: DONE
