Kara · Answer 1

CaF2 > Ag2CO3 > Ag3 (PO4) 2 > Ba3 (PO4) 2

Explanation:

Ksp which is solubility product konstant shows equilibrium between a solids and its respective ions in a solution. And the lower it is the less soluble the ion compound will be. And for CaF2 we have the highest konstant and for Ba3 (PO4) 2 we have it the lowest.
