How does the concept of solubility product help in predicting the ionising and precipitating nature of a salt?
Give the points of difference betw een solubility and solubility product.

Solubility product |
1. It is applicable to electrolytes such as NaCl as well as non-electrolytes such as urea. |
1. It can be increased or decreased in case of electrolytes by common ions even at constant temperature. |
2. It is applicable only to electrolytes like urea. |
2. Ksp remains constant at a particular temperature. |
The solubility of Ag2CrO4 at 298K is 6·6 × 10–5 moles/litre. Find its solubility product.
The solubility of CaF2 in water at 298K is 1·7×10–3 gram per 100 cm3. Calculate the solubility product of CaF2 at 298K.
Calculate the molar solubility of Ni(OH)2 in 0·10M NaOH. The ionic product of Ni(OH)2 is 2·0 × 10–15.
At a certain temperature, the solubility product of AgCl is 1 × 10–10, calculate the solubility of AgCl in g/litre.
