Answer to Question #103474 in Physical Chemistry for Akshay Kumar

Question

Define solubility product constant and derive the relationships between solubility
and solubility product constants for salts of AB2, A2B types.

Answer 1

Solubility is defined as the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent at equilibrium.

K_AB2=[A][B]²; s=M_AB2((K_AB2)^1/2)/3

K_AB2=[A]²[B]; s=M_A2B((K_AB2)^1/2)/3
