Oceans 4: Solubility Product Flashcards
1
Q
Symbol for solubility product
A
Ksp
2
Q
Definition solubility product, Ksp
A
Equilibrium constants for partially soluble ionic compounds
3
Q
Give general equilibrium equation for partially ionic solid dissolved in water
A
Aa + Bb (s) <=> aA+ (aq) + bB- (aq )
4
Q
Give general Ksp expression for partially ionic solid dissolved in water
A
Ksp = [A+ ]^a [B-]^b
5
Q
How concentration and solubility related in the reaction below and what does that mean
AB(s) <=> A+(aq) + B-(aq)
A
Concentration of each ion the saturated solution = solubility of AB
Therefore Ksp = ( solubility of AB )^2
N.B not the case when mole ratios are not exact
