Identify the correct order of solubilty of $\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{~S}$, $\mathrm{CuS}$ and $\mathrm{ZnS}$ in aqueous medium

  • A
    $\mathrm{CuS}>\mathrm{ZnS}>\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{~S}$
  • B
    $\mathrm{ZnS}>\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{~S}>\mathrm{CuS}$
  • C
    $\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{~S}>\mathrm{CuS}>\mathrm{ZnS}$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{~S}>\mathrm{ZnS}>\mathrm{CuS}$

Solution

The correct order of solublity of sulphides is $\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{~S}>\mathrm{ZnS}>\mathrm{CuS}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
