Q. The solubility product of $BaSO_{4}$is $1.5 \times 10^{- 9}$. The precipitation in a 0.01 M $Ba^{2 +}$ solution will start, on adding $H_{2}SO_{4}$of concentration

A) $10^{- 9}\ M$
B) $10^{- 8}\ M$
C) $10^{- 7}\ M$
D) $10^{- 6}\ M$
Explanation

(c)
$K_{sp}$ of $BaSO_{4} = 1.5 \times 10^{- 9}:\left\lbrack Ba^{2 +} \right\rbrack = 0.01\ M$
$\left\lbrack SO_{4}^{2 -} \right\rbrack = \frac{1.5 \times 10^{- 9}}{0.01} = 1.5 \times 10^{- 7}$
