    If the solubility of\[PbC{{l}_{2}}\]at\[25{}^\circ C\]is\[6.3\times {{10}^{-2}}\]mol/L, its solubility product is

    A) \[1\times {{10}^{-6}}\]                                  

    B) \[1\times {{10}^{-3}}\]

    C) \[1.1\times {{10}^{-6}}\]              

    D) \[1.1\times {{10}^{-5}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     \[PbC{{l}_{2}}\]completely ionised in the solution as\[PbC{{l}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}P{{b}^{2+}}+2C{{l}^{-}}\]ie, 1 mole of \[PbC{{l}_{2}}\]in the solution gives 1 mole of\[P{{b}^{2+}}\]ion and 2 moles of\[C{{l}^{-}}\]ions. Now, as the solubility of\[PbC{{l}_{2}}\] \[=6.3\times {{10}^{-2}}mol/L\] \[\therefore \]  \[[P{{b}^{2+}}]=6.3\times {{10}^{-2}}mol/L\] And        \[[C{{l}^{-}}]=2\times 6.3\times {{10}^{-2}}\]                 \[=12.6\times {{10}^{-2}}mol/L\] \[\therefore \]\[{{K}_{sp}}\]for\[PbC{{l}_{2}}=[P{{b}^{2+}}]{{[C{{l}^{-}}]}^{2}}\]                 \[=(6.3\times {{10}^{-2}})\times {{(12.6\times {{10}^{-2}})}^{2}}\]                 \[=1\times {{10}^{-3}}\]
