The correct option is (2) 2.

  • To prevent the precipitation of the metal sulfide MS from the solution, we need to maintain the concentration of the sulfide ion HS- below the solubility product of MS.
  • This can be achieved by adding an acid (H+) to the solution, which will react with the HS- ion to form more H2S.
  • This will shift the equilibrium to the left, reducing the concentration of HS- ion and preventing the precipitation of MS.

Using the equation pH = pKa + log ([HS-]/[H2S])

Ka = [H+][HS-]/[H2S]

10^-20 = [H+][HS-]/0.1

[H+][HS-] = 10^-22

[HS-] = (10^-22/[H+])

Substituting the value of [HS-] into the pH equation :

pH = 6.3 + log (10^-12)

pH = 2

Therefore, the pH of the solution needed to prevent the precipitation of MS using 0.1 M HS from a 0.1 M solution of M2+ is 2.
