JEE Main Chemistry question
If the solubility product of AgBrO₃ and Ag₂SO₄ are 2×10⁻⁵ and 5.5×10⁻⁵ respectively, the relationship between the solubilities of these can be correctly represented as:
Answer: (B)
Solution
s(AgBrO₃)=√(2×10⁻⁵)≈4.5×10⁻³; s(Ag₂SO₄)=(5.5×10⁻⁵/4)^(1/3)≈0.024, which is larger.
