Ionic Equilibrium · Class 11 · JEE Main Previous Year Question
The solubility of AgCl will be maximum in which of the following?
- a
0.01 M HCl
- b
0.01 M KCl
- c✓
Deionised water
- d
0.01 M
Deionised water
Common ion effect: Adding a common ion ( or ) decreases the solubility of AgCl.
Step 1 — Analyse each option:
(1) 0.01 M HCl: Provides (common ion) suppresses dissolution low solubility ✗
(2) 0.01 M KCl: Provides (common ion) suppresses dissolution low solubility ✗
(3) Deionised water: No common ions maximum solubility ✓
(4) 0.01 M : Provides (common ion) suppresses dissolution low solubility ✗
Answer: Option (3) — Deionised water
