Solubility product(KSP)

Question

Statement 1 : ${BaCO}_{3}$ is more soluble in ${HNO}_{3}$ than in plain water.
Statement 2 : Carbonate is a weak base and reacts with the $H^{+}$ from the strong acid, causing the barium salt to dissociate.

Moderate

A

Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct ..
B

Statement 1 is correct and Statement 2 is incorrect .
C

Statement 1 is incorrect and Statement 2 is correct.
D

Both Statement 1 and 2 are incorrect .

Solution

Barium carbonate is more soluble in ${HNO}_{3}$ than in water. Carbonate is a weak base and reacts with the $H^{+}$ ion of ${HNO}_{3}$ causing the barium salt to dissociate.
${BaCO}_{3} + {HNO}_{3} \to Ba {({NO}_{3})}_{2} + {CO}_{2} + H_{2} O$
