Out of the given salts,
C e_(2)\left(S o_(4)\right)_(3) decreases in solubility as the temperature increases.

Answer: Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are talking about Cerium (III) Sulphate which is an inorganic compound, commonly known as Cerous Sulphate. Its chemical formula is
C e_(2)\left(S o_(4)\right)_(3). This salt has a monoclinic crystal structure and appears off-white in colour.

It’s solubility in water is 9.25 g/100ml at the temperature of 20
^(\circ) \mathrm{C}, that decreases with the increase in temperature and that’s why it’s counted amongst those few salts that has less solubility when increase temperature.
