Equilibria of Slightly Soluble Ionic Compounds
When a solution becomes saturated and a precipitate forms, a cloudiness appears, which is insoluble solute. Small amounts of ionized solute remain in solution. A representation of the equilibrium relative to the concentrations of the ions is referred to as the:
ìSolubility Productî
or the ìSolubility-Product Constantî : Ksp
