Question

Which compound is more soluble in water at 25°C?

A.
MgF2 (Ksp = 5.2 x 10-11)
B.
SrF2 (Ksp = 7.9 x 10-10)
C.
AgBr (Ksp = 5.0 x 10-13)
D.
Agl (Ksp = 1.5 * 10-16)

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The solubility depends on the ksp. As the value of ksp increases the compound becomes more and more soluble.

In the options, the highest ksp value is 10^-10, thus that one is the most soluble.
