Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Saturated solution of the slightly soluble salt
Concept introduction:
Solubility is the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent to form a homogenous system at a specified temperature.
Slightly soluble substances are partially soluble that means a limited amount of substance dissolves.
Common ion effect: The suppression of dissociation of weak electrolyte by the addition of a strong electrolyte, both the electrolyte contains a common ion. This effect may greatly affect the solubility of a substance.
