How to find solubility of a salt based on Ksp?
The problem says, 'If the Ksp value for #CdF_2# is #6.44\times10^(-3)# , what is the solubility of #CdF_2# ?'
I'm not entirely sure where to start with this. Thanks!

Explanation:
Cadmium fluoride is moderately soluble...and in contact with water participates in the following solubility equilibrium...
And this equilibrium can be quantified...
...
Now if we let the
