Correct Answer: Options C and D.
Explanation:
Under the
influence of a common ion, the solubility of one electrolyte is decreased. This is
known as the common ion effect. Due to the common ion
effect, the disassociation reaction of the weak species starts to occur in the
opposite direction. Common ion
effect can only take place if at least one electrolyte is weak and there is a
common ion present among the species. If both species are
strong, then they are $$100\%$$ disassociated. Thus, no equilibrium is set up
rather $$100\%$$ dissociation takes place.
1. $$BaCl_{2}$$ and
$$Ba(NO_{3})_{2}$$ Both have $$Ba^{2+}$$ as a common ion. $$BaCl_{2}$$ is a salt of $$Ba(OH)_{2}$$ and $$HCl$$. $$Ba(NO_{3})_{2}$$ is a
salt of $$Ba(OH)_{2}$$ and $$HNO_{3}$$. Since all of these are strong acids and
bases, these two species don’t exhibit the common ion effect.
2. $$NaCl$$ and
$$HCl$$ Both have $$Cl^{-}$$ as a common ion. $$NaCl$$ is a salt of $$Na(OH)$$ and $$HCl$$. $$HCl$$ is a strong acid itself.
Since all of these are strong acids and bases, these two species don’t exhibit the common ion effect.
3. $$NH_{4}OH$$ and
$$NH_{4}Cl$$ Both have $$NH_{4}^{+}$$ as a common ion. $$NH_{4}OH$$ and $$NH_{4}Cl$$ are both weak species since $$NH_{4}^{+}$$ is a
weak species. Therefore, these two can exhibit the common ion effect.
4. $$AgCN$$ and $$KCN$$ Both have $$CN^{-}$$ as a common ion. $$KCN$$ is a salt of a weak acid and strong base and $$AgCN$$ is a sparingly soluble salt, they have $$CN^-$$ ion in common. So they will show the common ion effect.
Hence, Options $$C$$ and $$D$$ will show the common ion effect.
