Answer:

1 - Salts required  that can be compared directly, using Ksp values, to estimate solubilities for copper (II) sulfide are - [tex]CaSO_3[/tex] (Option b) ,[tex]BaCrO_4[/tex] (Option c) and [tex]CaS[/tex] (Option d)

2 - Salts  that can be compared directly, using Ksp values, to estimate solubilities for zinc hydroxide are - [tex]Mg(OH)_2[/tex] (Option a)

Explanation:

[tex]K_s_p[/tex] values can be used to compare the solubility of salts that produce ions in a 1:1 ratio.

  1. [tex]CuS[/tex] {copper (II)sulfide} dissociates with ions in ratio 1:1 .

Because the salts [tex]CaSO_3[/tex] , [tex]BaCrO_4[/tex] and [tex]CaS[/tex]  have a 1:1 ion ratio, the solubilities of options b, c, and d can be compared to salt 1.

[tex]K_s_p[/tex] Values can be used to compare the solubility of salts that produce ions in a 1:2 or 2:1 ratio.

  2. [tex]Zn(OH)_2[/tex] dissociates into ions in ratio 1:2 .

Because the ions in the salt [tex]Mg(OH)_2[/tex] are in a 1:2 ratio, the solubility of salt 2 can be compared to that of salt 'a'.

Hence , Salt 1 is matched with options b , c , d.

              Salt 2 is matched with option a.
