Concentration of solute molecule when they are in equilibrium with solid substance at particular temperature is called________________?

Correct answer: B. solubility

  • A. saturated solution
  • B. solubility
  • C. unsaturated solution
  • D. super saturated solution

Explanation

The concentration of solute present when a solution is in equilibrium with undissolved solid at a fixed temperature is its solubility. Students may choose saturated solution, but saturation describes the condition of the solution, whereas solubility is the measured equilibrium concentration.

About Solubility Product

The solubility product constant, Ksp, represents the equilibrium concentrations of ions from a sparingly soluble salt, each raised to its stoichiometric power. Problems involve writing Ksp expressions, calculating molar solubility, applying the common-ion effect and predicting precipitation from the ionic product.
