Chapter 17, Problem 17.119QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The concentration of calcium ion, sodium ion, chloride ion and fluoride ion has to be calculated from the given solution.

Concept introduction:

• The solubility product constant ( ${\text{K}}_{\text{sp}}$) is defined as the equilibrium between compound and its ions in an aqueous solution.
• Solubility product is the multiplication of concentration of dissolved ion,  raised to the power of coefficients.
• Ionic compound ${\text{A}}_{\text{3}}\text{B}$ ${\text{K}}_{\text{sp}}\text{=}{\left[\text{A}\right]}^{\text{3}}\left[\text{B}\right]$.
• Molar solubility is defined as amount of solute that can be dissolved in one litre of solution before it attains saturation.
