The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the solubility products of AgCl, AgBr, and AgI, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Concept of Solubility Product (Ksp) The solubility product (Ksp) is an equilibrium constant that applies to the solubility of sparingly soluble ionic compounds. It is defined as the product of the molar concentrations of the ions, each raised to the power of their coefficients in the balanced equation. ### Step 2: Analyze the Given Information The question states that: \[ K_{sp}(AgCl) > K_{sp}(AgBr) > K_{sp}(AgI) \] This indicates that AgCl has the highest solubility product, followed by AgBr, and then AgI. ### Step 3: Relate Ksp to Solubility Since the solubility product increases with increasing solubility, we can conclude that: - AgCl is more soluble than AgBr. - AgBr is more soluble than AgI. ### Step 4: Draw Conclusions From the order of the solubility products, we can deduce: - AgCl is the most soluble among the three. - AgBr is less soluble than AgCl but more soluble than AgI. - AgI is the least soluble among the three. ### Step 5: Evaluate the Options Based on the conclusions drawn: 1. **AgCl is less ionized than AgBr and AgI** - Incorrect. 2. **Both AgBr and AgI are less soluble than AgCl** - Correct. 3. **AgI is more soluble than AgCl** - Incorrect. 4. **AgBr is more soluble than AgCl** - Incorrect. ### Final Answer The correct interpretation of the given information is that **both AgBr and AgI are less soluble than AgCl**. ---

Consider a sturated solution of silver chloride that is in contact with solid silver chloride. The solubility equilibrium can be represented as AgCl(s)hArrAg^(+)(aq.)+Cl^(-)(aq.)," "K_(sp)=[Ag^(+)(aq.)][Cl^(-)(aq.)] Where K_(sp) is clled the solubility product constant or simply the solubility product. In general, the solubility product of a compound is the product of the molar concentrations of the constituent ions, each raised to the power of its stoichiometric coefficient in the equilibrium equation. For concentrations of ions that do not necessarliy correpond to equilibrium conditions we use the reaction quotient (Q) which is clled the ion or ionic prodect (Q) to predict whether a precipitate will from.
