Equilibrium - Result Question 99

####103. In which of the following solvents, AgBr will have the highest solubility?

[1992]

(a) 103MNaBr

(b) 103MNH4OH

(c) Pure water

(d) 103MHBr

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. (b) AgBr has the highest solubility in 103M

NH4OH.AgBr is less soluble in NaBr and HBr due to presence of common ion (Br). With NH4OH,AgBr will react as:

AgBr(s)+2NH4OH (aq.)

arrow[Ag(NH3)2]Br( aq. )+2H2O(l)

Hence, the highest solubility with NH4OH solution.
