NEET 2013 Chemistry Solubility Product MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 11

The values of Ksp of CaCO₃ and CaC₂O₄ are 4.7 × 10⁻⁹ and 1.3 × 10⁻⁹ respectively at 25°C. If the mixture of these two is washed with water, what is the concentration of Ca²⁺ ions in water?

A

5.831 × 10⁻⁵ M

B

6.856 × 10⁻⁵ M

C

3.606 × 10⁻⁵ M

D

7.746 × 10⁻⁵ M

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The concentration of Ca²⁺ ions is determined by the solubility product (Ksp) of the less soluble salt, CaC₂O₄, which is 1.3 × 10⁻⁹.
