Question

briefly explain the term solubility product. discuss the application in qualitative analysis​

Answer 1

Answer:

The solubility product, Ksp, applies in situations where salts do not fully dissolve in a solvent. The solvent is generally water. A substance's solubility product is the mathematical product of its dissolved ion concentrations raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients.

Answer 2

In qualitative analysis, a solution is treated with various reagents to test for the presence of certain ions. Solubility-product constants can be used to devise methods for separating ions in a solution by selective precipitation.
