Q. If H2S gas is bubbled into 0.2 M NaCN solution which is 0.02 M in each [Cd(CN)4]2- and [Ag(CN)2]-.then which option will be correct if H2S produces 1 x 10-9 M sulphide ion in the solution
( Given Ksp Ag2S = 1 x 10-50 M3; Ksp CdS = 7.1 x 10-28 M2
Kinst [Ag(CN)2]- = 1 x 10-20M2 Kinst [Cd(CN)4]2- = 7.8 x 10-18 M4 )

Solution:

From question




Similarly,

[S2-] needed to precipitate [Ag+]


[S2-] needed to precipitate [Cd2+]

Since [S2-] needed to precipitate Cd2+ ion is smaller than that of Ag+ ion.
