    If solubility product of\[HgS{{O}_{4}}>4\]is\[6.4\times {{10}^{-5}},\] then its solubility is:

    A) \[8\times {{10}^{-3}}mol/L\]

    B) \[6.4\times {{10}^{-5}}mol/L\]

    C) \[6.4\times {{10}^{-3}}mol/L\]

    D) \[2.8\times {{10}^{-6}}mol/L\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     Key Idea: First find the relationship between solubility and solubility product of\[HgS{{O}_{4}},\]then substitute the values and calculate to find the value of solubility of\[HgS{{O}_{4}}\]. Let the solubility of\[HgS{{O}_{4}}\]be s mol/L \[HgS{{O}_{4}}\underset{s}{\mathop{H{{g}^{2+}}}}\,+\underset{s}{\mathop{SO_{4}^{2-}}}\,\] \[{{K}_{sp}}=[H{{g}^{2+}}][SO_{4}^{2-}]\] \[=s\times s\] \[={{s}^{2}}\] Or           \[s=\sqrt{{{K}_{sp}}}\]                 \[=\sqrt{6.4\times {{10}^{-5}}}\]                 \[=8\times {{10}^{-3}}mol/L\]
