The solubilty product (Ksp) of PbCl₂ : Ksp = [Pb²⁺][Cl⁻]²
Further explanation
Given
PbCl₂ compound
Required
The solubilty product (Ksp)
Solution
Ksp is the product of ions in an equilibrium saturated state
For reaction :
AₓBₐ (s) ⇔ aAᵃ⁺ (aq) + b Bᵇ⁻ (aq)
Can be formulated :
Ksp = [Aᵃ⁺] ᵃ [Bᵇ⁻] ᵇ
For PbCl₂ :
PbCl₂(s)⇔Pb²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)
Ksp = [Pb²⁺][Cl⁻]²
