Which of the following substance do not show continuous solubility curve ?

Correct answer: B. Na2SO4. 10H2O

  • A. KCIO4
  • B. Na2SO4. 10H2O
  • C. K2Cr2O7
  • D. PbCl2

Explanation

Na2SO4·10H2O shows a discontinuity in its solubility curve because the decahydrate changes to another solid form at a transition temperature. Students may choose K2Cr2O7 because its curve changes steeply, but steepness does not mean discontinuity.

About Solubility Product

The solubility product constant, Ksp, represents the equilibrium concentrations of ions from a sparingly soluble salt, each raised to its stoichiometric power. Problems involve writing Ksp expressions, calculating molar solubility, applying the common-ion effect and predicting precipitation from the ionic product.
