Question

In 1 litre saturated solution of AgCl, 0.1 mol of CuCl is added. As a result, the concentration of Ag* in
the solution becomes 10- M. If the Ksp values of AgCl and CuCl are 10-10 and 10-6 respectively, then
the value of x is?​

Answer 1

In 1 L saturated solution of AgCl (K

sp

AgCl=1.6×10

−10

), 0.1 mol of CuCl (K
