Ba SO4

This document outlines a procedure to determine the solubility product (Ksp) and thermodynamic properties of sparingly soluble salt barium sulfate (BaSO4) conductometrically. The procedure involves determining the cell constant, measuring the conductivity of BaSO4 solutions at different temperatures, calculating solubility (S) and Ksp values, and using the results to determine the change in free energy (ΔG), enthalpy (ΔH), and entropy (ΔS) by plotting graphs of Ksp vs. temperature and log Ksp vs. 1/T. The key results are the reported values of Ksp at 25°C, ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS.
