4.1 The Solubility Product, Saturation
Index, and the Solubility of Simple Salts
|
|
OVERVIEW
You should understand the significance of the
solubility product, and be able to calculate saturation indices for
minerals. You should also gain the ability to calculate the
solubility of simple salts in natural waters.
KEY CONCEPTS
-
