The correct order of solubility of the given salts in water at $298 K$ is:
Salt$K_{sp}$ at $298 K$
$AgBr$$5.0 \times 10^{-13}$
$Zn(OH)_2$$1.0 \times 10^{-15}$
$Hg_2Cl_2$$1.3 \times 10^{-18}$

  • A
    $Hg_2Cl_2 > Zn(OH)_2 > AgBr$
  • B
    $AgBr > Zn(OH)_2 > Hg_2Cl_2$
  • C
    $Hg_2Cl_2 > AgBr > Zn(OH)_2$
  • D
    $Zn(OH)_2 > AgBr > Hg_2Cl_2$
