The expression for solubility product of mercurous iodide $(Hg_2I_2)$ is

A

$[2Hg^+]^2 [I^-]^2$

B

$[Hg^+]^2 [I^-]^2$

C

$[Hg^{+2}]^2 [I^-]^2$

D

$[Hg_2^{+2}] [I^-]^2$

Solution

Explanation :

Solubility product constant : It is defined as the product of the concentration of the ions present in a solution raised to the power by its stoichiometric coefficient in a solution of a salt. This takes place at equilibrium only. The solubility product constant is represented as, .

The dissociation of mercury(i) iodide is written as:

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

Therefore, the solubility product expression is
