JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2004 - No. 7)

The molar solubility (in ol L-1) of a sparingly soluble salt MX4 is "s". The corresponding solubility product is Ksp. 's' is given in term of Ksp by the relation :
s = (256 Ksp)1/5
s = (128 Ksp)1/4
s = ( Ksp / 128)1/4
s = (Ksp / 256)1/5

Explanation

$$M{X_4}\rightleftharpoons\,\mathop {{M^{4 + }}}\limits_{S\,\,\,\,\,\,\,} + \mathop {4{X^ - }}\limits_{4S} $$

$${K_{sp}} = \left[ s \right]{\left[ {4s} \right]^4} = 256\,{s^5}$$

$$\therefore$$ $$\,\,\,\,\,s = {\left( {{{{K_{sp}}} \over {256}}} \right)^{1/5}}$$
