You have a solution of 0.10 M Cl^- and . You add 0.10 M silver nitrate dropwise into the solution. K_sp for Ag₂CrO₄ is 9.0 × 10^-12 and for AgCl is1.6 × 10^-10. Which of the following will precipitate first? A) silver nitrate B) silver chromate C) cannot be determined from the information given D) silver chloride E) none of these

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

AgCl has a greater Ksp value than Ag2CrO4, which means AgCl is more soluble and will remain in solution longer before it reaches its saturation point and precipitates. Therefore, silver chloride will precipitate first.
