Chapter 16, Problem 14SAQ

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The option corresponding to the minimum concentration of ${\text{Cl}}^{-}$ ions that is required to precipitate out of ${\text{PbCl}}_{\text{2}}$ is to be identified.

Concept introduction: The molar solubility represents the number of moles of a substance which can be dissolved in a liter of solution. The molar solubility is calculated by the solubility product constant $\left({\text{K}}_{\text{sp}}\right)$ . The unit of molar solubility is $\text{mol/L}$ or $\text{M}$ .

To determine: The option corresponding to the minimum concentration of ${\text{Cl}}^{-}$ ions that is required to precipitate out of ${\text{PbCl}}_{\text{2}}$ .

Correct answer: The option (c) is correct.
