Solubility product(KSP)
Question

pH of saturated solution of Ba(OH)2 is 12.The value of solubility product of Ksp of Ba(OH)2 is

Difficult
Solution

Given pH of Ba(OH)2=12

pOH=14-pH=14-12=2

We know that, pOH=-logOH-

2=-logOH-

OH-=10-2

Ba(OH)2 dissolve in water as 

Ba(OH)2(s)Ba2++2OH-

S mol L-1  S  2S

OH-=2s=10-2

Ksp=Ba2+OH-2=10-22×10-22

=0.5×10-6=5×10-7
