Unit 7.11: Introduction to Solubility Equilibria
Write the Ksp expression for the dissolution of a salt.
- Write the Ksp expression for AgCl(s) ⇌ Ag+ + Cl−.
- How would you express Ksp for CaF2 dissolving in water?
Calculate the solubility of a salt from the Ksp value.
- Given Ksp of AgCl, calculate its solubility in mol/L.
- If Ksp of BaSO4 is 1.1 × 10−10, find its solubility in water.
Determine if a salt is considered soluble by examining its Ksp value.
- Is a salt with Ksp = 1 × 10−12 soluble or insoluble?
-
Compare two salts with different Ksp values and determine which is
more soluble.
