The solubility of \(A_2 X_3\) is ' \(y\) ' M. Its solubility product is \(\mathrm{M}^5\).

The solubility of \(A_2 X_3\) is ' \(y\) ' M. Its solubility product is \(\mathrm{M}^5\).
  1. \(6 y^4\)
  2. \(64 y^4\)
  3. \(36 y^5\)
  4. \(108 y^5\)

Solution

For a sparingly soluble salt of molecular formula \(A_2 X_3\), if solubility in pure water is \(y \mathrm{M}\) at a given temperature, \(\begin{aligned} A_2 X_3 ightleftharpoons & 2 A^{3+}+3 X^{2-} \\ & 2 y \mathrm{M} \quad 3 y \mathrm{M} \end{aligned}\) Solubility product, \(K_{\mathrm{sp}}=\left[A^{3+}ight]^2\left[X^{2-}ight]^3=(2 y)^2+(3 y)^3\) \(=4 y^2+27 y^3=108 y^5 \mathrm{M}^5\)
