    The solubility product of \[BaC{{l}_{2}}\] is \[4\times {{10}^{-9}}.\] Its solubility in mol/L is

    A)  \[4\times {{10}^{-3}}\]                 

    B)  \[4\times {{10}^{-9}}\]

    C)  \[1\times {{10}^{-3}}\] 

    D)         \[1\times {{10}^{-9}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Find relationship between solubility product and solubility of \[BaC{{l}_{2}}\]and then solve problem (solubility product of \[BaC{{l}_{2}}\]is\[4\times {{10}^{-9}}\]) \[BaC{{l}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}B{{a}^{2+}}+2C{{l}^{-}}\] Let the solubility of \[BaC{{l}_{2}}x\,mol/L\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{K}_{sp}}=[B{{a}^{2+}}]{{[C{{l}^{-}}]}^{2}}\]                 \[=(x)\times {{(2x)}^{2}}\] \[=x\times 4{{x}^{2}}-4{{x}^{3}}\] or solubility of\[BaC{{l}_{2}}\] \[=\frac{{{(solubility\,product\,of\,BaC{{l}_{2}})}^{\frac{1}{3}}}}{4}\] \[={{\left( \frac{4\times {{10}^{-9}}}{4} \right)}^{1/3}}\] \[={{10}^{-3}}mol/L\]
