Solution

When the solubility of PbSO4 water is 0.038g/l. To Calculate the solubility product constant of lead (II) sulphate, we need to find the number of moles of of lead (II) sulphate then write the equation for the dissociation of it as well.
Number of moles= mass/ relative formula mass
Relative formula mass of PbSO4=208+32+64=304
Therefore moles = 0.038/304 = 0.000125 moles
Dissociation of PbSO4Pb+2+SO24
ksp=(0.000125)2
=1.5×108
