Multiple choice

For the reaction given below, identify the type of graph obtained between [Ba2+] and [SO42-].

BaSO4(s) <------> Ba2+(aq) + SO42-(aq)

  1. Straight line graph, ( y = mx + c ) type

  2. Rectangular Hyperbola

  3. Constant graph ( y = 0) type

  4. None of these

B Correct answer
Explanation

This option is correct and can be explained as follows: For the give n reaction the equilibrium constant is given byK = [Ba2+][SO42-]……………………….or we can say that [Ba2+] and [SO42-] are having inversely proportional relationship whose graph is given by a rectangular hyperbola.
