Question

At 30 degree celsius solubility of ag2co3 would be greatest in one litre of

Answer 1

a)In pure water

Ag2CO3↔2Ag^+ +CO3^2-

b)In NH3:

Ag2CO3↔2Ag^+ +CO3^2-

2Ag+ +4NH3↔2Ag(NH3^2+

Overall:Ag2CO3+4NH3↔2Ag(NH3^2+ +CO3^2-)

Here a complex formation is taking place,due to the formation of complex the reaction between silver ionsa & ammonia shifts the solubility equilibria in the forward direction,which in turns increases the solubility.

c)& d):Due to the presence of common ion in these reactions,the solubility is suppressed.

Therefore,Ag2CO3 will be most soluble in NH3.

Hence correct answer is (b)
