The KspKsp of a salt corresponds to a reaction with the following general format: salt(s)⇌mcation(aq)+nanion(aq)where mm and nn are the coefficients that balance the equation. Equilibrium constants follow the general format of products over reactants (excluding pure liquids and solids) with each species raised to the power of its coefficient in the balanced equation.
