Solubility of an ionic compound in water...

Solubility of an ionic compound in water is mainly dependent on
A) Lattice enthalpy `" "` B) Hydration enathalpy
Both these factors oppose each other and the resultant of these determines thhe solubility of an ionic compound in water. If lattice enthalpy has greater value, the compound has greater value, the compound is less soluble. In case hydration enthaply has greater value, the compound is highly soluble is water
Which of the following is more soluble in water

A

`MgSO_(4)`

B

`CaSO_(4)`

C

`SrSO_(4)`

D

`BaSO_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The solubility of sulphates. Carbonates decreases down the group so `MgSO_(4)` is more soluble than other compounds
