To what reaction does the solubility product constant, Ksp, refer? Table 15-1 lists Ksp values for several ionic solids. For any of these ionic compounds, you should be able to calculate the solubility. What is the solubility of a salt, and what procedures do you follow to calculate the solubility of a salt? How would you calculate the Ksp value for a salt given the solubility?

Interpretation:
The solubility product constant; solubility of a salt and the procedure to calculate the solubility of salt and the
Concept introduction:
The chemical laws of equilibrium for the dissolution of salt in a solvent. The dissolution of a salt depends on the type of salt whether it is completely soluble or partially soluble.
Answer to Problem 1RQ
The salts that do not dissolve completely in a solvent or they show the partial dissociation, for them solubility product that is
The solubility is defined as the amount of a particular salt that can dissolve in a given amount of a solvent at a particular temperature
The solubility product of a salt is equal to the product of concentration of each ion present in the salt and raised to the power equal to their stoichiometric coefficient.

The salts that do not dissolve completely in a solvent or they show the partial dissociation, for them solubility product that is
The solubility is defined as the amount of a particular salt that can dissolve in a given amount of a solvent at a particular temperature
The solubility is defined as the amount of a particular salt that can dissolve in a given amount of a solvent at a particular temperature. Therefore solubility of salt is also the amount of salt that can dissolve in the given amount of solvent. Solubility depends on the temperature conditions.
To determine the solubility of a salt its
Let the solubility of both the ions be
The concentration of A is
The value of solubility product
Substitute the value of concentration of each species in the above equation as,
Now if the value of
The solubility product of a salt is equal to the product of concentration of each ion present in the salt and raised to the power equal to their stoichiometric coefficient.

The value of solubility product
Substitute the value of concentration of each species in the above equation as,
This gives the solubility product of the salt.
The solubility of a sparingly soluble salt and its solubility product are related to each other and both are dependent on the temperature conditions.
