Chapter 17, Problem 17.78QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The ionic compounds which are soluble in acid compared to water has to be identified.

Concept introduction:

• Le Chatelier's principle states that if a system in equilibrium gets disturbed due to modification of concentration, temperature, volume, and pressure, then it reset to counteract the effect of disturbance.
• The salt is more soluble in acid if the anion of the salt is a base as the hydrogen ion reduces concentration of the anion.

To explain: The reason of ${\text{BaSO}}_{\text{4}}\text{,}{\text{Fe(OH)}}_{\text{3}}\text{,}{\text{CaCO}}_{\text{3}}$ soluble in acid.
