- 1Ag2CrO4 precipitates first because the concentration of Ag+ needed is lower.
- 2AgCl will precipitate first because the concentration of Ag+ needed to initiate precipitation is lower.✓
- 3Ag2CrO4 precipitates first because its Ksp value is lower.
- 4AgCl precipitates first because its Ksp value is higher.
Correct answer
AgCl will precipitate first because the concentration of Ag+ needed to initiate precipitation is lower.
