    The solubility of \[PbC{{l}_{2}}\]is:

    A) \[\sqrt{{{K}_{sp}}}\]      

    B)        \[{{({{K}_{sp}})}^{1/3}}\]

    C) \[{{({{K}_{sp/4}})}^{1/3}}\]         

    D)        \[{{(8{{K}_{sp}})}^{1/2}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the solubility of \[PbC{{l}_{2}}=x\,mol/L\] \[\underset{x\,mol/L}{\mathop{PbC{{l}_{2}}}}\,\underset{x}{\mathop{P{{b}^{2+}}}}\,+\underset{2x}{\mathop{2C{{l}^{-}}}}\,\] \[{{K}_{sp}}=[P{{b}^{2+}}]{{[C{{l}^{-}}]}^{2}}\] or            \[=(x)\times {{(2x)}^{2}}\] or            \[=4{{x}^{3}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[x=\sqrt[3]{\frac{{{K}_{sp}}}{4}}={{\left( \frac{{{K}_{sp}}}{4} \right)}^{1/3}}\]
