Aqueous equilibria slightly soluble ionic compounds

In this section, we explore the aqueous equilibria of slightly soluble ionic compounds, which up to now we ve called insoluble. In a saturated solution at a particular temperature, equilibrium exists between the undissolved and dissolved solute (Chapter 13). Slightly soluble ionic compounds have a relatively low solubility, so they reach equilibrium with relatively little solute dissolved. At this point, it would be a good idea for you to review the solubility rules listed in Table 4.1. [Pg.632]

If we make the assumption that there is complete dissociation of a slightly soluble ionic compound into its component ions, then equilibrium exists between solid solute and aqueous ions. Thus, for example, for a saturated solution of lead(II) sulfate in water, we have... [Pg.632]
