This attached problem is from TBR Gen Chem, Equilibrium passage 7, #46.
I understand that adding Cl- to Ag+ solution will precipitate out AgCl, so the answer is B. According to the table, the magnitudes of molar solubility for Ag, Sr, and Zn with Cl- are 10^-5, 10^-2, and 10^-2 respectively. Adding Cl- will precipitate out Ag but not Sr and Zn, which is probably explained by the difference between 10^-5 and 10^-2 values. Is there a molar solubility cutoff point at which it is safe to say that something will precipitate or not?
