The solubility of silver benzoate `(C_(6)H_(5)COOAg)` in `H_(2)O` and in a buffer solution of `pH = 2, 3`, and `4` are `S_(1), S_(2), S_(3)` and `S_(4)` respectively. The decreasing order of solubility is

A

`S_(1) gt S_(2) gt S_(3) gt S_(4)`

B

`S_(4) gt S_(3) gt S_(2) gt S_(1)`

C

`S_(2) gt S_(3) gt S_(4) gt S_(1)`

D

`S_(3) gt S_(2) gt S_(4) gt S_(1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

C

The solubility of salt of `W_(A)` increases with increase in concentration of `H^(o+)` or at lower `pH` value due to the protonation of anion, which increases the ionisation of the salt.
`PhCOOAgrarrunderset(PhCOOH)underset(darrH^(o+))(PhCOO^(Theta))+Ag^(o+)`
Hence solubility is: `S_(2) gt S_(3) gt S_(4) gt S_(1)`
