Solubility-Product Constants for Compounds

 

Dissociation constants of acids and bases ka and kb respectively at 25 °C were given in a previous post. Solubility product ksp for a sparingly soluble salt M+X- in contact with its saturated solution is given by: ksp = [M+(aq)] * [X-(aq)]

The values given are at 298.15 K unless stated otherwise.
