Increasing order of solubility of AgCl in:
- (i) H2O
- (ii) 1M NaCl (aq)
- (iii) 1M CaCl2 (aq)
- (iv) 1M NaNO3 (aq)
- (i) H2O
- (ii) 1M NaCl (aq)
- (iii) 1M CaCl2 (aq)
- (iv) 1M NaNO3 (aq)
Show Hint
- CaCl2<NaCl<H2O<NaNO3
- CaCl2>H2O>NaCl>NaNO3
- CaCl2>NaCl>H2O<NaNO3
- CaCl2<NaCl<H2O>NaNO3
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The solubility of AgCl, NaCl, and CaCl2 is examined in various solvents.
Solubility order is determined by:
- AgCl's solubility is low in water, but decreases with common ions from NaCl or CaCl2.
- CaCl2's Ca2+ and Cl- ions can increase AgCl solubility.
- NaNO3 minimally affects AgCl solubility because it does not trigger the common ion effect.
The increasing solubility order is:
\(\text{CaCl}_2<\text{NaCl}<\text{H}_2\text{O}<\text{NaNO}_3\)
