Equilibrium Question 214

Question: If the concentration of lead iodide in its saturated solution at $ 25^{o}C $ be $ 2\times {10^{-3}} $ moles per litre, then its solubility product is [CPMT 1984]

Options:

A) $ 4\times {10^{-6}} $

B) $ 8\times {10^{-12}} $

C) $ 6\times {10^{-9}} $

D) $ 32\times {10^{-9}} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

$ \underset{K _{sp}}{\mathop{PbI_2}}, $ ⇌ $ \underset{S}{\mathop{P{b^{++}}}},+\underset{2S,}{\mathop{2{I^{-}}}}, $

$ K _{sp}=4S^{3}=4\times {{[2\times {10^{-3}}]}^{3}} $

$ =32\times {10^{-9}} $ .
