7.6 Solubility Equilibrium

Question 1

Solubility

Answer 1

Quantity of solute that dissolves in a given quantity of solvent at a particular temp: concentration of a saturated solution at a particular temp

Question 2

Solubility equilibrium

Answer 2

Dynamic equilibrium btwn a solute and a solvent in a saturated solution in a closed system

Question 3

Solubility product constant (Ksp)

Answer 3

Value obtained from the EQ law applied to a saturated solution

Question 4

Trial ion product (Q)

Answer 4

Product of concentrations of ions in a specific solution raised to powers equal to their coeffieints in the balanced chemical equation: can be used to predict the formation of a ppt

Question 5

Common ion effect

Answer 5

A reduction in the solubility of an ionic compound due to the presence of a common ion in solution
