Henry's law p = kx vs m = kp
What exactly is the difference between the following equations?
$$p = kx \qquad\text{and}\qquad m = kp$$
Is the $k$ in both same, because I have seen same $k$ in textbooks for both equations?

In an unsaturated solution, is the product of ions still equal to Ksp?
Suppose I have a solution of a sparingly soluble compound, and consider its solubility in g/L. If I have less g/L of solution than that amount, it means the solution is unsaturated, but what happens ...

How can the Kw of water be constant?
I know in neutral solution, $\ce{[H+]}= \ce{[OH-]}= \pu{1.0 x 10^-7}$.
However, let’s say I add an acid like HCl. This will increase $\ce{[H+]}$, therefore it’s no longer $\pu{1.0 x 10^-7}$, but is ...

Are all salts completely dissociated in solution when put in smaller amounts than their molar solubility?
From what I understand, the solubility is given in terms of molar solubility (or $\pu{K_{sp}}$), from which it can be easily calculated). Indeed, the saturation point represents the maximum amount of ...
