    MY and \[\text{N}{{\text{Y}}_{3}},\]two nearly insoluble salts, have the same \[{{K}_{sp}}\]values of \[6.2\text{ }\times \text{ }{{10}^{13}}\] at room temperature. Which statement would be true in regard to MY and\[\text{N}{{\text{Y}}_{3}}\]?                                                              

    A)  The molar solubilities of MY and \[\text{N}{{\text{Y}}_{\text{3}}}\]in water are identical.

    B)  The molar solubility of MY in water is less than that of \[\text{N}{{\text{Y}}_{\text{3}}}\]

    C)  The salts MY and \[\text{N}{{\text{Y}}_{\text{3}}}\]are more soluble in 0.5 M KY than in pure water.

    D)   The addition of the salt of KY to solution of MY and \[\text{N}{{\text{Y}}_{\text{3}}}\]will have no effect on their solubilities.

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     \[MY\to {{K}_{sp}}={{s}^{2}}=6.2\times {{10}^{-13}}\] \[s=\sqrt{6.2\times {{10}^{-13}}}\] \[s=7.87\times {{10}^{-7}}\,\text{mol}\,{{\text{L}}^{-1}}\] \[N{{Y}_{3}}\to {{K}_{sp}}=27\,{{s}^{4}}=6.2\times {{10}^{-13}}\] \[s={{\left( \frac{6.2\times {{10}^{-13}}}{27} \right)}^{1/4}}\] \[s=3.89\times {{10}^{-4}}\,\text{mol}\,{{\text{L}}^{-1}}\] \[\therefore \]molar solubility of \[N{{Y}_{3}}\] is more than MY in  water.
