Solubility product of AgCl is 2.8 × 10-10 at 250C. Calculate solubility of the salt in 0.1 M AgNO3 solution
2.8 × 10-9 mol/litre
2.8 × 10-10 mol/litre
3.2 × 10-9 mol/litre
3.2 × 10-12 mol/litre
In 0.1 M AgNO3
AgNO3 ⇌ Ag+ + NO3-
AgCl ⇌ Ag+ + Cl -
KSP = Ag+ Cl - 2.8×10-10 =[0.1] [Cl-]
Ag+ can be taken as AgNO3
∴ Solubility of AgCl = 2.8×10-1010-1 =2.8×10-9 moles/lit
