Understand the dissociation of the compound C2D3 in water. When C2D3 dissolves, it breaks into its constituent ions. Assume it dissociates into 2 C ions and 3 D ions.
Write the balanced chemical equation for the dissociation: C2D3(s) ⇌ 2C(aq) + 3D(aq).
Define the molar solubility of C2D3 as x. This means that for every mole of C2D3 that dissolves, x moles of C2D3 dissociate.
Express the concentrations of the ions in terms of x. From the balanced equation, the concentration of C ions will be 2x and the concentration of D ions will be 3x.
Write the Ksp expression using the concentrations of the ions: Ksp = [C]^2[D]^3 = (2x)^2(3x)^3. Simplify this expression to find the correct Ksp formula in terms of x.
