ions formed by coordination of ligands to simple cations.
complex ion
the number of moles of solute per litre of saturated solution
molar solubility
solid formed by mixing ions of a slightly soluble compound.
percipitate
equilibrium constant for dissociation of a complex ion
Kd
equilibrium constant for dissolution of an “insoluble” compound
Ksp
