In which of the following solvents, AgBr will have the highest solubility?

  • 10-3 M NaBr

  • 10-3 M NH4OH

  • Pure water

  • 10-3 M HBr


B.

10-3 M NH4OH

In NaBr and HBr, the solubility of AgBr is suppressed due to the presence of common ion (common ion effect). Moreover, AgBr being covalent compound is insoluble in water.

However, it is easily soluble in 10-3 M NH4OH due to the formation of soluble complex.

AgBr + NH4OH → [Ag(NH3)2]Br + H2O
