A solution which remains in equilibrium with undissolved solute is said to be saturated. The concentration of a saturated solution at a given temperature is called solubility. The product of concentration of ions in a saturated solution of an electrolyte at a given temperature, is called solubility product `(K_(sp))`. For the electrolyte, `A_(x),B_(y),:A_(x),B_(y(s)) rarr xA^(y+)+ y^(Bx-)`, with solubility S, the solubility product `(K_(sp)) =x^(x)xxy^(y) xx s^(x+y)`. While calculating the solubility of a sparingly soluble salt in the presence of some strong electrolyte containing a common ion, the common ion concentration is practically equal to that of strong electrolyte. If in a solution, the ionic product of an clectrolyte exceeds its `K_(sp)`, value at a particular temperature, then precipitation occurs.
The solubility of `PbSO_(4)`, in water is 0.303 g/l at `25^(@)`C, its solubility product at that temperature is
