Question

$AgCl$ is more soluble in aqueous sodium chloride solution than in pure water.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

$AgCl\rightleftharpoons A{g}^{+}+C{l}^{-}$
$NaCl\to N{a}^{+}+C{l}^{-}$

Sodium chloride is a strong electrolyte and is completely dissociated. This increases the chloride ion concentration in solution and suppresses the ionization of $AgCl$. Hence, the solubility of $AgCl$ decreases.
