the undissolved and dissolved ions in a saturated solution has been established when a precipitate forms. The solubility of the solid ionic compound Calcium Hydroxide was observed in this experiment. In the equilibrium reaction of Ca(OH)2 Ca(OH)2 (s)⇌Ca(aq)2++ OH(aq)- [1] ‚ the solubility product constant‚ Ksp‚ is represented by Ksp=Ca2+OH- [2] Ksp is related to Gibb’s free energy change of the dissolution process. Given ∆G° = -RT lnKsp [3] We can literally say
