Question

explain why nacl is soluble in water while agcl is no soluable in water​

Answer 1

Salt (sodium chloride) nacl is made from positive sodium ions bonded to negative chloride ions. Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of water molecules attracts the negative chloride ions and the negative part of watermolecules attracts the positive sodium ions.

Agcl is non -polar because of big size of silver ion with chlorine ion and so it's deform the electrons shells,so this gives its non polar nature so agcl insoluble in water

Answer 2

Answer:

NaCl is soluble in water while AgCl is not soluble in water because

✍The Water Salt (sodium chloride) is made from positive sodium ions bonded to negative chloride ions. Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of water molecules attracts the negative chloride ions and the negative part of water molecules attracts the positive sodium ions.

✍ Solubility of compounds depends upon lattice energy and enthalpy of hydration. AgCl is also not soluble in water, because the forces favouring formation of silver hydroxide are too weak to break the ionic bonds between silver and chlorine in AgCl .
