Selective Precipitation

The video tutorial explains selective precipitation, focusing on ionic compounds that form solid precipitates in saturated solutions. It highlights the phenomenon using silver halides, showing how different solubility levels lead to selective precipitation. The tutorial provides a practical example with potassium iodide and potassium chloride, demonstrating how silver iodide precipitates first due to its lower solubility compared to silver chloride. The concept of Ksp values is central to understanding which compound precipitates first.
