Solubility Expressions





Objectives

After finishing this activity, you should be able to:

  1. state what it means when a concentration is expressed as a solubility expression
  2. state the conditions that apply to solubility expressions
  3. state what solubility expressions can be used to express the concentration of
  4. do calculations involving concentrations expressed as solubility expressions.

Prerequisites

You need to know the following: the basic units of mass and volume, the relationship between number of moles, RMM and mass and how to do the associated calculations, what significant figures are. You will probably need a calculator.
