At 25 °C only 0.0500 mol of the generic salt AB is soluble in 1.00 L of water. What is the Ksp of the salt at 25 °C?
no of moles of AB salt = 0.05 moles
volume of solution = 1L
molarity of AB salt = no of moles/volume in L
= 0.05/1 = 0.05 M
AB(s) --------------------> A^+ (aq) + B^- (aq)
s s
Ksp = [A^+][B^-]
= s^s
Ksp = S^2
= (0.05)^2 = 0.0025 >>>>>answer
