Ksp Ag2CrO4 = (Ag^+)^2(CrO4^2-) = 1.12E-12
From above you know (Ag^+) = 2x from Ag2CrO4 + 0.100 from AgNO3 for a total of 2x + 0.100. Plug that in for (Ag^+) in Ksp expression.
You know (CrO4^2-) = x.
Plug those into Ksp for Ag2CrO4 expression and solve for x = solubility Ag2CrO4 in this solution. Post your work if you get stuck.
What is the solubility of Ag2CrO4 in 0.100 M AgNO3? Ksp = 1.12 x 10-12
