Equilibrium Question 189
Question: The solubility of $ AgI $ in $ NaI $ solution is less than that in pure water because [UPSEAT 2001]
Options:
A) AgI forms complex with NaI
B) Of common ion effect
C) Solubility product of AgI is less than that of NaI
D) The temperature of the solution decreases
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
Solubility is decreased due to common ion effect. $ AgI $ ⇌ $ A{g^{+}}+{I^{-}} $
$ NaI $ ⇌ $ N{a^{+}}+{I^{-}} $
