The `K_(sp)` of CuS, `Ag_(2)S` and `HgS` are `10^(-31), 10^(-44)` and `10^(-54)` respectively. The solubility of these sulphides are in the order.

A

`Ag_(2)S gt CuS lt HgS`

B

`Ag_(2)S gt HgS gt CuS`

C

`HgS gt Ag_(2)S gt CuS`

D

`CuS gt Ag_(2)S gt HgS`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Higher the `K_(sp)` value more will be the solubility of the salt.
