Which of the following is soluble in water?

Correct answer: A. AgF

  • A. AgF
  • B. AgCl
  • C. AgBr
  • D. AgI

Explanation

Silver fluoride is soluble in water, whereas AgCl, AgBr and AgI are sparingly soluble because their lattice energies and solubility equilibria favour the solid salts. The common trap is AgCl, which is more soluble than AgBr and AgI but is still not considered readily soluble in water.

About Electronic Structure of d-Block Elements

The electronic structure of d-block elements covers the filling of the (n-1)d and ns orbitals, general electronic configurations, and the exceptions shown by chromium and copper. It explains how partially filled d orbitals produce variable oxidation states, coloured ions, magnetic behaviour and complex formation, while distinguishing transition elements from elements with completely filled d subshells.
