JEE Main 2021 — Ionic Equilibrium Question with Solution
From: JEE Main 2021 (Online) 18th March Evening Shift
Question
The solubility of CdSO4 in water is 8.0 × 10−4 mol L−1. Its solubility in 0.01 M H2SO4 solution is __________ × 10−6 mol L−1. (Round off to the Nearest Integer). (Assume that solubility is much less than 0.01 M)

Correct answer
64
Step-by-step explanation
In pure water
∴ Ksp = (s)2 = (8 × 10-4)2 = 64 × 10-8
In H2SO4 solution,
As S1 < < 0.01 so, S1 + 0.01 ≃ 0.01
∴ Ksp = [Cd+2] [So4−2]
⇒ 64 × 10-8 = S1× 0.01
⇒ S1 = 64 × 10-6
