Solution

The correct option is B 0.010M BaCl2 and 0.015M NaF
When equal volumes of 0.010 BaCl2 and 0.015 NaF solutions are mixed, the ionic product exceeds solubility product. Hence, precipitation will occur.

BaCl2+NaFBaF2 +NaCl

Ka=[Ba2][F]2
=(0.010)(0.015)2=2.25×106

Ka=2.25×106

Ka>Ksp where, Ksp=1.7×107...... (given)

Hence, the correct option is B
