The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the correctness of the given statements, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement A **Statement A:** If two salts have equal solubility, then their solubility products are equal. **Solution:** - Let’s consider two salts: \( BaCl_2 \) and \( MgSO_4 \). - For \( BaCl_2 \): - Dissociation: \( BaCl_2 \rightarrow Ba^{2+} + 2Cl^{-} \) - If the solubility is \( s \), then: - \( [Ba^{2+}] = s \) - \( [Cl^{-}] = 2s \) - Solubility product \( K_{sp} = [Ba^{2+}][Cl^{-}]^2 = s(2s)^2 = 4s^3 \). - For \( MgSO_4 \): - Dissociation: \( MgSO_4 \rightarrow Mg^{2+} + SO_4^{2-} \) - If the solubility is \( s \), then: - \( [Mg^{2+}] = s \) - \( [SO_4^{2-}] = s \) - Solubility product \( K_{sp} = [Mg^{2+}][SO_4^{2-}] = s \cdot s = s^2 \). - Since \( K_{sp} \) for \( BaCl_2 \) is \( 4s^3 \) and for \( MgSO_4 \) is \( s^2 \), they are not equal even if the solubility \( s \) is the same. **Conclusion:** Statement A is **incorrect**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement B **Statement B:** \( BaSO_4 \) is more soluble in water than in dilute \( H_2SO_4 \). **Solution:** - \( BaSO_4 \) dissociates in water to form \( Ba^{2+} \) and \( SO_4^{2-} \) ions. - In dilute \( H_2SO_4 \), there is a common ion \( SO_4^{2-} \) present. - The presence of a common ion decreases the solubility of \( BaSO_4 \) due to the common ion effect. **Conclusion:** Statement B is **correct**. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement C **Statement C:** When KI is added to \( PbI_2 \), then the \( [Pb^{2+}] \) decreases. **Solution:** - \( PbI_2 \) dissociates into \( Pb^{2+} \) and \( 2I^{-} \). - Adding KI introduces more \( I^{-} \) ions into the solution. - The increased concentration of \( I^{-} \) will shift the equilibrium to the left (according to Le Chatelier's principle), thus decreasing the concentration of \( Pb^{2+} \). **Conclusion:** Statement C is **correct**. ### Step 4: Analyze Statement D **Statement D:** In any solution containing \( AgCl \), the value of \( [Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}] \) is constant at constant temperature. **Solution:** - \( AgCl \) is a sparingly soluble salt that dissociates into \( Ag^{+} \) and \( Cl^{-} \). - The solubility product \( K_{sp} \) is defined as \( K_{sp} = [Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}] \). - At a constant temperature, \( K_{sp} \) remains constant regardless of the concentrations of \( Ag^{+} \) and \( Cl^{-} \). **Conclusion:** Statement D is **correct**. ### Final Conclusion - **Correct Statements:** B, C, and D. - **Incorrect Statement:** A.
