Question

If we slowly add a solution of mercury II ions to a solution of aqueous halide ions with roughly equal concentrations a precipitate will form Explain what the precipitate will consist of initially Select the correct answer below The initial precipitate will consist of a single compound HgX where X is the halogen for which HgX has the smallest Ksp O The initial precipitate will consist of a single compound HgX where X is the halogen for which HgX has the largest Ksp The initial precipitate will consist of a mixture of halide compounds of the form HgX with mole fractions proportional to their respective Ksp values The initial precipitate will consist of a mixture of halide compounds of the form HgX with mole fractions inversely proportional to their respective Ksp values
