The stoichiometry and solubility product of a salt with the solubility curve given below is, respectively : 
Multiple Choice Options
- A XY, 2 × 10–6 M3
- B XY2, 1 × 10–9 M3
- C XY2, 4 × 10–9 M3
- D X2Y, 2 × 10–9 M3
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
From the given curve,
if [X] = 1 mM then [Y] = 2 mM
Salt is XY2
XY2(s) ⇌ X2+(aq.) + 2Y-(aq.)
ksp = [X2+][Y–]2
= (10–3) (2 × 10–3)2
= 4 × 10–9 M3
if [X] = 1 mM then [Y] = 2 mM
Salt is XY2
XY2(s) ⇌ X2+(aq.) + 2Y-(aq.)
ksp = [X2+][Y–]2
= (10–3) (2 × 10–3)2
= 4 × 10–9 M3
