A student investigates the solubility of silver chloride, \(\text{AgCl}(s)\), by adding an excess of solid \(\text{AgCl}\) to four separate beakers containing different aqueous solutions at \(25^\circ\text{C}\):

\[ \text{AgCl}(s) \rightleftharpoons \text{Ag}^+(aq) + \text{Cl}^-(aq) \quad K_{sp} = 1.8 \times 10^{-10} \text{ at } 25^\circ\text{C} \]

BeakerSolution
WPure distilled \(\text{H}_2\text{O}\)
X\(0.050 \text{ M AgNO}_3\text{(aq)}\)
Y\(0.10 \text{ M NaCl(aq)}\)
Z\(0.10 \text{ M CaCl}_2\text{(aq)}\)

Which of the following correctly ranks the molar solubility of \(\text{AgCl}(s)\) in the four beakers from greatest to least?
