"Silver chloride is essentially insoluble in water" this statement is true for the equilibrium constant for the dissolution of silver chloride.

Option: b

<u>Explanation</u>:

As silver chloride is essentially insoluble in water but also show sparing solubility, its reason is explained through Fajan's rule. Therefore when AgCl added in water, equilibrium take place between undissolved and dissolved ions. While solubility product constant \left(\boldsymbol{K}_{s p}\right) for silver chloride is determined by equilibrium concentrations of dissolved ions. But solubility may vary also at different temperatures.  Complete solubility is possible in ammonia solution as it form stable complex as water is not good ligand for Ag+.  

To calculate \left(\boldsymbol{K}_{s p}\right) firstly molarity of ions are needed to be found with formula: \text { Molarity of ions }=\frac{\text { number of moles of solute }}{\text { Volume of solution in litres }}

Then at equilibrium cations and anions concentration is considered same hence:

\left[\mathbf{A} \mathbf{g}^{+}\right]=[\mathbf{C} \mathbf{I}]=\text { molarity of ions }

Hence from above data \left(\boldsymbol{K}_{s p}\right) can be calculated by: \left(\boldsymbol{K}_{s p}\right) = \left[\mathbf{A} \mathbf{g}^{+}\right] \cdot[\mathbf{C} \mathbf{I}]

What makes the outer shell electrons important is that they
klemol [59]
A, because the number of valence shell electrons (outer shell electrons) tells us how much the element or compound wants to bond or give up electrons. Most compounds and elements want to have eight valence ectrons in it's outer ring. So if an atom is far away from having eight, it will want to react more often.

nignag [31]

In the given case, the scientist should use a circle graph or pie chart.  

One can dissect a circle into smaller segments, a component of the circle is known as an arc and an arc is named on the basis of its angle. A pie chart, or a circle graph, is used to visualize data and information.  

A circle graph is generally used to demonstrate the outcomes of an examination in a proportional way. In a circle graph, the arcs are proportional to how many percents of the population gave a particular answer.
