Question

If the maximum concentration of $PbCl_2$ in water is 0.01 M at 25ºC, its maximum concentration in 0.1 M NaCl will be

Prashant Kotian · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: D. The reaction can be written as- 2 2 PbCl Pb 2Cl The maximum concentration of lead ions= 0.01M Also, the concentration of chloride ions= 0.02M Now, the solubility product can be calculated as- 2 2 sp 2 6 sp K [Pb ][Cl ] K [0.01][0.02] 4.0 10 x On dissolving lead chloride in NaCl, we have chloride as common ion. Therefore, 2 2 2 2 sp 6 2 2 2 6 2 PbCl Pb 2Cl K [Pb ][Cl ] 4.0 10 [Pb ][0.1] [Pb ] 4.0 10 /[0.1] 0.0004 x x M
