Solubility product(KSP)
Question

MY and NY3, two nearly insoluble salts, have the same Ksp values of 6.2×10-13 at room temperature. Which statement would be true in regard to MY and NY3 ?

Moderate
Solution

For MY:Ksp=s12

s1=Ksp=6.2×10-13=7.87×10-7 mol L-1

For NY3:Ksp=27s24s2=6.2×10-13274

s2=3.89×10-4 mol L-1

Hence, molar solubility of MY  in water is less than that of NY3 .
