Solution

The correct option is A 104M Ag+ and 104M Cl
Given, AgCl (Ksp=1.8×1010)
For precipitation the ionic product should exceed solubility product (Ksp).

(a) 104M Ag+ and 104M Cl
[Ag+][Cl]=(104×104)=108M2
[Ag+][Cl]=108>K0sp=1.8×1010)
Hence, precipitation will take place.

b) 105M Ag+ and 105M Cl
[Ag+][Cl]=(105×105)=108M2
[Ag+][Cl]=1010<K0sp=1.8×1010)
Hence, no precipitation will take place.

c) 106M Ag+ and 106M Cl
[Ag+][Cl]=(106×106)=1012M2
[Ag+][Cl]=1012<K0sp=1.8×1010)
Hence, no precipitation will take place.

d) 1010M Ag+ and 1010M Cl
[Ag+][Cl]=(1010×1010)=1020M2
[Ag+][Cl]=1020<K0sp=1.8×1010)
Hence, no precipitation will take place.
