How do you calculate Ksp?

1 Answer

Jun 23, 2016

See this old answer.

Explanation:

As explained in the link, #K_(sp)# is just another equilibrium constant:

#MX(s) rarrM^+ + X^-#

#K_(sp) =[M^+][X^-]#

#[MX(s)]# does not appear in the expression, because we cannot speak of the concentration of a solid.
