Detailed Solution

{\left( {{K_{sp}}} \right)_{BaCr{O_4}}} < {\left( {{K_{sp}}} \right)_{SrCr{O_4}}}

For precipitation of BaCrO4, the concentration of CrO_4^{ - 2} required

= \frac{{{K_{sp}}}}{{\left[ {B{a^{ + 2}}} \right]}}

= \frac{{1.2 \times {{10}^{ - 10}}}}{{{{10}^{ - 2}}}}

={1.2 \times {{10}^{ - 8}}}

For the precipitation of SrCrO4, the concentration of CrO_4^{ - 2} required

= \frac{{{K_{sp}}}}{{\left[ {S{r^{ + 2}}} \right]}} = \frac{{3.5 \times {{10}^{ - 5}}}}{{{{10}^{ - 1}}}}

={3.5 \times {{10}^{ - 4}}}

When the precipitation of SrCrO4 begin, the equilibrium of undissolved BaCrO4 and dissolved BaCrO4 also exists.

\therefore KIP = Ksp

\Rightarrow \left[ {B{a^{ + 2}}} \right]\left[ {CrO_4^{ - 2}} \right] = 1.2 \times {10^{ - 10}}

\Rightarrow \left[ {B{a^{ + 2}}} \right] = \frac{{1.2 \times {{10}^{ - 10}}}}{{3.5 \times {{10}^{ - 4}}}} = 3.43 \times {10^{ - 7}}
