    Conductivity of a saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt AB at 298 K is \[1.85\times {{10}^{-5}}S\,{{m}^{-1}}\]. Solubility product of the salt AB at 298 K is Given:  \[\wedge _{m}^{o}(AB)=140\times {{10}^{-4}}S\,{{m}^{2}}\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]

    A)  \[5.7\times {{10}^{-12}}\]     

    B)  \[1.32\times {{10}^{-12}}\]

    C)  \[7.5\times {{10}^{-12}}\]

    D)  \[1.74\times {{10}^{-12}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    : Using the relationship between solubility of sparingly soluble salt and \[\wedge _{m}^{o}\], \[k=1.85\times {{10}^{-5}}S\,{{m}^{-1}}\,=1.85\times {{10}^{-7}}S\,c{{m}^{-1}}\] \[\wedge _{m}^{o}=140\times {{10}^{-4}}\,S\,{{m}^{2}}\,mo{{l}^{-1}}=140\,S\,c{{m}^{2}}\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]\[s=\frac{k\times 1000}{\wedge _{m}^{o}}=\frac{1.85\times {{10}^{-7}}\times 1000}{140}\] \[s=\frac{k\times 1000}{\wedge _{m}^{o}}=\frac{1.85\times {{10}^{-7}}\times 1000}{140}\] \[=1.32\times {{10}^{-6}}\] \[{{K}_{sp}}={{(s)}^{2}}\]                 [For AB type of salt] \[={{(1.32\times {{10}^{-6}})}^{2}}=1.74\times {{10}^{-12}}\]
