Question

Which of the following compounds will have the highest molar solubility in pure water?

a. PbS, Ksp = 9.04 × 10^-29
b. CuS, Ksp = 1.27 × 10^-36
c. Al(OH)3, Ksp = 3 × 10^-34
d. ZnS, Ksp = 1.6 × 10^-24
e. Ag2S, Ksp = 8 × 10^-4

Answer 1

Answer:

ZnS, Ksp=2.0×10−25

Explanation:

The Ksp is a constant that let us know the capacity of the compound to easily dissociates in water. The higher the Ksp, the more soluble the compound is. In the exercise giving, the highest Ksp is 2.0×10−25, that means ZnS will dilutes easily than others
