i feel like none of these answers are right.

if the solubility of the solid is 'S' mol/ L, what is the Ksp of the product of the salt?

Ca3PO42-(s) --> 3Ca2+(aq) + 2PO42- (aq)

A)ksp=S^2
B)ksp=4S^3
C)ksp=27S^4
D)ksp=108S^5

Only leaning towards D because its the only one that makes sense...

ksp=[3Ca2+]^3[2PO42-]^2 ????
ksp=108S^5

See my response to your post above.

To find the correct answer for the Ksp expression of the product of the salt, we need to look at the balanced chemical equation and determine the stoichiometry coefficients.

The given balanced chemical equation is: Ca3PO42-(s) --> 3Ca2+(aq) + 2PO42- (aq)

From the equation, we can see that the stoichiometric coefficients for Ca2+ and PO42- ions are 3 and 2, respectively.

The Ksp expression represents the solubility product constant, which is the equilibrium expression for the dissolution process of the salt. It is given by the product of the concentrations of the dissolved ions, each raised to the power of its stoichiometric coefficient.

So, based on the balanced equation, the correct Ksp expression becomes:

Ksp = [Ca2+]^3 [PO42-]^2

Now, let's look at the given options:

A) ksp = S^2 - This option is incorrect as it does not reflect the stoichiometric coefficients of the ions.

B) ksp = 4S^3 - This option is incorrect because the stoichiometric coefficient of Ca2+ is 3.

C) ksp = 27S^4 - This option is incorrect because it does not reflect the stoichiometric coefficients of the ions.

D) ksp = 108S^5 - This option is correct because it matches the stoichiometric coefficients of the ions in the balanced equation. Therefore, the correct answer is (D) ksp = 108S^5.

Thus, the correct Ksp expression for the given salt is ksp = 108S^5.
