The correct Answer is:
To determine when precipitation of AgCl will occur upon mixing equal volumes of solutions, we need to analyze the solubility product (Ksp) of AgCl, which is given as \(1.8 \times 10^{-10}\). Precipitation occurs when the ionic product (the product of the concentrations of the ions) exceeds the Ksp. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Ksp**: The solubility product \(K_{sp}\) for AgCl can be represented as: \[ K_{sp} = [Ag^+][Cl^-] \] For precipitation to occur, the ionic product must be greater than \(K_{sp}\). 2. **Calculating Ionic Products for Given Solutions**: We will calculate the ionic product for each solution provided in the options. The ionic product is calculated by multiplying the concentrations of \(Ag^+\) and \(Cl^-\) ions. - **Option 1**: Concentration of \(Ag^+ = 10^{-4} \, M\) and \(Cl^- = 10^{-4} \, M\) \[ Ionic \, Product = [Ag^+][Cl^-] = (10^{-4})(10^{-4}) = 10^{-8} \] - **Option 2**: Concentration of \(Ag^+ = 10^{-7} \, M\) and \(Cl^- = 10^{-7} \, M\) \[ Ionic \, Product = (10^{-7})(10^{-7}) = 10^{-14} \] - **Option 3**: Concentration of \(Ag^+ = 10^{-5} \, M\) and \(Cl^- = 10^{-5} \, M\) \[ Ionic \, Product = (10^{-5})(10^{-5}) = 10^{-10} \] - **Option 4**: Concentration of \(Ag^+ = 10^{-10} \, M\) and \(Cl^- = 10^{-10} \, M\) \[ Ionic \, Product = (10^{-10})(10^{-10}) = 10^{-20} \] 3. **Comparing Ionic Products with Ksp**: Now we will compare each calculated ionic product with the given \(K_{sp} = 1.8 \times 10^{-10}\). - **Option 1**: \(10^{-8} < 1.8 \times 10^{-10}\) (No precipitation) - **Option 2**: \(10^{-14} < 1.8 \times 10^{-10}\) (No precipitation) - **Option 3**: \(10^{-10} < 1.8 \times 10^{-10}\) (No precipitation) - **Option 4**: \(10^{-20} < 1.8 \times 10^{-10}\) (No precipitation) 4. **Conclusion**: None of the options yield an ionic product greater than the Ksp of AgCl. Therefore, precipitation of AgCl will not occur in any of the provided solutions. ### Final Answer: Precipitation of AgCl will not occur in any of the given solutions.
