Explanation / Answer

moles of Na2CO3 dissolved = mass/molecular weight

= 45.5 g/ 105.99 g/mol= 0.429

concentration of Na2CO3 = moles/volume

= 0.429/ 0.100 L= 4.29 M
Na2CO3 = 2Na+ + CO3 -2
[Na+]= 4.29 x 2 =8.58 M
[CO32-] = 4.29 M

Ksp = [Na+]^2[CO32-] = (8.58)^2 x 4.29 = 316

OPTION E IS CORRECT
