Solubility product of silver bromide is `5.0 xx 10^(-13)`. The quantity of potassium bromide (molar mass taken as `120 g mol^(-1)`) to be added to 1 litre of 0.5 M solution of silver nitrate to start the precipitation of AgBr isA. `5.0 xx 10^(-8) g`B. `1.2 xx 10^(-10) g`C. `1.2 xx 10^(-9) g`D. `6.2 xx 10^(-5) g`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`Br^(-) = (K_(sp)(AgBr))/(C_(Ag^(+)))`
`Br^(-) = (5 xx 10^(-13))/(0.05) = 10^(-11)`
Conc. `= [KBr] = 10^(-11)` ltbgt Moles of KBr `= 10^(-11)`
Weight of KBr `= 10^(-11) xx 120 xx 1.2 xx 10^(-9)g`.
