Highly selective Backlog Qs for JEE MainChemistryIonic Equilibrium
The solubility (S) of a solute in water varies with temperature as given by S = A e - Δ H / R T , Δ H being the enthalpy of solution. For a given solute, variation of lnS with temperature is as shown in figure. The solute is expected to be
Options
- ACaO
- BM g S O 4
- CC u S O 4
- DC u S O 4 . 5 H 2 O
Correct answer
D. C u S O 4 . 5 H 2 O
Step-by-step solution
lnS = lnA − ΔH RT Slope = − ΔH RT lnS vs 1 T graph with negative slope. So, Δ H > 0 Salts with water of crystallisation. i.e., C u S O 4 . 5 H 2 O .
