Problem 6
Which one of following statements about copper(I) iodide (CuI, K

) is incorrect.
A
Copper(II) carbonate is more soluble in 0.100 M HBr solution than in pure water.
B
Molar solubilities of both salts can be calculated by taking the square roots of their Ksp values.
C
Copper(I) iodide is more soluble in 1.0 M ammonia solution than in pure water (K
