Answer

$ K_{sp} (MX) = (1.07 \times 10^{-21})$

Work Step by Step

1. Write the $K_{sp}$ expression: $ MX(s) \lt -- \gt 1M^{n+}(aq) + 1X^{n-}(aq)$ $ K_{sp} = [M^{n+}]^ 1[X^{n-}]^ 1$ 2. Determine the ions concentrations: $[M^{n+}] = [MX] * 1 = [3.27 \times 10^{-11}] * 1 = 3.27 \times 10^{-11}$ $[X^{n-}] = [MX] * 1 = 3.27 \times 10^{-11}$ 3. Calculate the $K_{sp}$: $ K_{sp} = (3.27 \times 10^{-11})^ 1 \times (3.27 \times 10^{-11})^ 1$ $ K_{sp} = (3.27 \times 10^{-11}) \times (3.27 \times 10^{-11})$ $ K_{sp} = (1.07 \times 10^{-21})$
