This value is approx. 36.
This value is 36.
It will decrease the Ksp
the higher the Ksp value the more soluble a compound is.
No. Ksp can be used for metals as well, such as lead (Pb). The Ksp for Pb is often very small, but increases with increasing temperature.
A precipitate will form
The most important effect is temperature. As temperature increases, the solubility of most solid solutes increases. At different temperature, the Ksp value for salts fluctuates. With the Ksp value of the solute, you can determine the concentrations of the ions formed. Surface area also plays an important part. The more surface area, the faster a solute will dissolve
It means a precipitate will form
If the ion product concentration is greater than the Ksp value a precipitate will form. If it equals the Ksp the solution is saturated and no precipitate forms.
6.47×10-6
NaCl dissolve so easily that it is not even given a solubility product constant, as this value ( also known as the Ksp) tells us the solubility for compounds that don't readily dissolve.
(AuCl has Ksp = 2.0 x 10-13)-1.0 x 10-12
(AgCl has Ksp = 1.8 x 10-10)-5.1 x 10-10
