(1) Name the ions involved in the reaction.
Silver sulfate dissociates to form silver ions and sulfate ions. (Note that is sulfate rather than sulfite, which is .) The other ions in the solution are strontium and barium ions. These ions are monatomic and are named by adding the word "ion" to the name of the element.
(2) Write the solubility product for the dissolution of
The reaction governing the dissolution of silver sulfate is
