NEET Chemistry Solubility Product Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The solubility of Ni(OH)2 is higher than that of AgCN.
Reason (R): The solubility product (Ksp) of Ni(OH)2 is greater than that of AgCN.
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
(A) is true but (R) is false.
(A) is false but (R) is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The Ksp of Ni(OH)2 is 2.0 × 10^-15, which is greater than the Ksp of AgCN, 6 × 10^-17, indicating that Ni(OH)2 is more soluble.
