NEET Chemistry Solubility Product MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Hard-Class 11

Which of the following statements about the solubility product (Ksp) of sparingly soluble salts is correct?

A

Ksp is constant at a given temperature and relates to the concentrations of the ions in a saturated solution.

B

Ksp varies directly with the solubility of the salt in all conditions.

C

The solubility product can be calculated using concentrations of both ions and the undissolved solid.

D

Ksp can be used to predict the precipitation of a salt when the product of the ion concentrations exceeds Ksp.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Ksp is defined as the product of the molar concentrations of the ions in a saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt, remaining constant at a given temperature, as stated in the NCERT context.
