Solution

The correct option is D ${N a}_{2} S > Z n S > C u S$
$\begin{matrix} {N a}_{2} S is highly electrovalent i.e. gets easily dissociated into {N a}^{+} and s^{2 -} . so, it will have high solubility. \end{matrix}$
$Among C u S and Z n S, CuS has lesser K_{sp} than Z n S because$
$of which CuS (black) precipitates earlier than ZnS (greenish of white)$
$so, correct order of solubility$
${N a}_{2} S > Z n S > C u S$
