Correct answer
A
Step-by-step explanation
Given
$\begin{aligned}
& \therefore \quad\left[\mathrm{CO}_3^{--}\right]=1.0 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{M} \\
& \text { i.e. } \quad \mathrm{s}=1.0 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{M}
\end{aligned}$
At equilibrium
$\begin{aligned}
& {\left[\mathrm{Ba}^{++}\right]\left[\mathrm{CO}_3{ }^{--}\right]=\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{sp}} \text { of } \mathrm{BaCO}_3} \\
& {\left[\mathrm{Ba}^{++}\right]=\frac{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{sp}}}{\left[\mathrm{CO}_3{ }^{--}\right]}=\frac{5.1 \times 10^{-9}}{1.0 \times 10^{-4}}}
\end{aligned}$
