Silver chloride is more soluble in very concentrated sodium chloride solution than in pure water.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

Since `NaCI` is very concentated solution, so supression of ionisation of `NaCI` takes place in presence of `AgCI`, so the `AgCI` is more ionised and hence `AgCI` is more soluble in `NaCI`
`NaCI rarr Na^(o+) + CI^(Theta) AgCI rarr Ag^(o+) + CI^(Theta)`

Assertion (A) is incorrect, but Reason (R ) is correct statement.

Pure sodium chloride is obtained by :

solar evaporation of sea water

crude salt is dissolved in minimum amount of water and filtered to remove insoluble impurities. Solution is then saturated with HCl gas

Solvay's process

Castner-Kellner's process

Concentration of sodium and chloride ions is lowest

Near the cortex

Deep in medulla

In the interstitial fluid

In the middle of Henle's loop
