Chapter 12, Problem 12.2P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Reason behind increase of solubility with ionic strength has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Ionic solutions are characterized by presence of numerous cations and anions. Each cation and anion interacts with one another via electrostatic attractive forces. Such ionic spheres composed of cation surrounded by anions or vice versa are present throughout the medium of ionic solutions.

Anion is surrounded by more number of cation than anions, similarly cation are surrounded by more anions than cation. This generates a sphere of net charge around each cation or anion.
