Chemistry - Salt Analysis Question with Solution | TestHub

Question Explanation:

Identifies correct properties of Silver Fluoride in various conditions.

Concept:

Solubility Trends, Solvation Energy vs Lattice Energy.

Solution:

1. AgF is soluble in water due to the very high hydration energy of the small F^- ion, which overcomes the lattice energy. (A) is correct.

2. Since it's soluble, (B) is incorrect.

3. In non-polar solvents where hydration is absent, the lattice energy of AgF would lead to precipitation. (C) is correct.

4. AgF is indeed unique among silver halides for being deliquescent and soluble. (D) is correct .
