Explanation:

Ionization equation for [tex]CaSO_{4}[/tex] is as follows.

     [tex]CaSO_{4} \rightarrow Ca^{2+} + SO^{2-}_{4}[/tex]

        s              s           s

Now, the expression for the solubility product is as follows.

          [tex]K_{sp} = [Ca^{2+}][SO^{2-}_{4}][/tex]

                = [tex]s \times s[/tex]

                = [tex]s^{2}[/tex]

As the concentration of [tex]Na_{2}SO_{4}[/tex] is given as 0.4 M.

So,  [tex][Na_{2}SO_{4}] = [SO^{2-}_{4}][/tex] = 0.4 M

Putting the given values as follows.

           [tex]K_{sp} = [Ca^{2+}][SO^{2-}_{4}][/tex]

     [tex]4.93 \times 10^{-5} = [Ca^{2+}] \times 0.4[/tex]

              [tex][Ca^{2+}][/tex] = 12.325 \times 10^{-5}[/tex]

Hence, the solubility of [tex]CaSO_{4}[/tex] in [tex]Na_{2}SO_{4}[/tex] is [tex]12.325 \times 10^{-5}[/tex].

Therefore, solubility of [tex]CaSO_{4}[/tex] in g/ml as follows.

        [tex]12.325 \times 10^{-5} \times 136 g/mol[/tex]

           = 0.0167 g/L

Thus, we can conclude that solubility of [tex]CaSO_{4}[/tex] is 0.0167 g/L.

The solubility of CaSO₄ in 0.4M of Na₂SO₄ is given as;

0.016762 g/mol

We are given;

Solubility of CaSO₄; K_sp = 4.93 × 10⁻⁵

Concentration of Na₂SO₄ = 0.4 M

The ionic equation of CaSO₄ is given as;

CaSO₄ ⇒ Ca²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

Now, the formula for solubility is;

K_sp = [A⁺]ᵃ × [B⁻]ᵇ

where;

A⁺ = Cations present in the aqueous solution

B⁻ = Anions present in the aqueous solution

a and b are relative concentrations

Thus, plugging in relevant values into the solubility equation, we have;

4.93 × 10⁻⁵ = Ca²⁺ × 0.4

Ca²⁺ = ( 4.93 × 10⁻⁵)/0.4

Concentration of Ca²⁺ = 12.325 × 10⁻⁵ M

Now, the molar mass of CaSO₄ is 136 g/mol

Thus, solubility of CaSO₄ in 0.4M of Na₂SO₄ is;

12.325 × 10⁻⁵ M × 136 g/mol = 0.016762 g/mol
