While observing effects of change in concentration BiCl3 reacts with water to give BiOCl which is?

Correct answer: D. White insoluble

  • A. White soluble
  • B. Pink soluble
  • C. Pink insoluble
  • D. White insoluble

Explanation

When BiCl3 reacts with water, it forms a white insoluble compound called BiOCl. This characteristic arises because BiOCl precipitates out of the solution due to its low solubility in water. The options suggesting 'pink' or 'soluble' are incorrect because BiOCl is not pink and is insoluble in water.

About Chemical Equilibrium

Reversible reactions reach dynamic equilibrium when forward and reverse rates become equal, and Le Chatelier's principle predicts the effect of changing concentration, pressure or temperature. The chapter also covers solubility product, the common ion effect, buffer action and the conditions used in Haber's process, with equilibrium shifts distinguished from changes in the equilibrium constant.
