Solubility Product Constant (Ksp)

Subject: Chemistry

Book: General Chemistry

Ksp is the equilibrium constant for a sparingly soluble ionic compound dissociating into its ions. For example, for AgCl → Ag+ + Cl–, Ksp = [Ag+][Cl–]. A low Ksp indicates limited solubility. Ksp calculations help predict precipitation, design gravimetric analysis, and control crystal formation in processes like kidney stone prevention or wastewater treatment.
