    The solubility (in mol\[{{L}^{-1}}\]) of AgCl\[({{K}_{sp}}=1.0\times {{10}^{-10}})\] in a 0.1 M KC1 solution will be   JEE Main Online Paper (Held On 07 May 2012)

    A) \[1.0\times {{10}^{-9}}\]              

    B)                        \[1.0\times {{10}^{-10}}\]

    C)                        \[1.0\times {{10}^{-5}}\]                              

    D)                        \[1.0\times {{10}^{-11}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    Let solubility of\[AgCl=xmole\text{/}L\] \[AgClA{{g}^{+}}+C{{l}^{-}}\]i.e.,\[{{K}_{sp}}_{(AgCl)}=x\times x\] \[KCl\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}{{K}^{+}}+C{{l}^{-}}0.1\] \[[C{{l}^{-}}]\]from \[KCl=0.1m\] Total\[[C{{l}^{-}}]\]in solution\[=x+0.1\] \[{{K}_{sp}}(AgCl)=[A{{g}^{+}}][C{{l}^{-}}]=x(x+0.1)\] \[1.0\times {{10}^{-10}}=x(x+0.1)\] \[1.0\times {{10}^{-10}}={{x}^{2}}+0.1x\] \[1.0\times {{10}^{-10}}=0.1\]    \[(as\,{{x}^{2}}<<1)\] \[x=1.0\times {{10}^{-9}}mol/L\]
