Given Ksp, how can I calculate solubility?
I'm told the Ksp of #CdF_2# is #6.44\times10^-3# and asked to determine the solubility. How would I go about doing this?
Thanks!

Consider,
where,
Moreover, consider that for every portion of cadmium ions that dissolve, two portions of fluoride ions will dissolve, such that at equilibrium,
Hence,
is the approximate solubility of cadmium (II) fluoride give your data.
