Answer:

a. PbSO4, Ksp = 1.7x10^-8.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the solubility product indicates how likely a solid is able to ionize and consequently dissolve in water, we can infer that the larger the solubility product Ksp, the more ions are able dissolve in water; therefore the proper answer goes with the largest Ksp, which is a. PbSO4, Ksp = 1.7x10^-8 since the power goes closer to 1 than the other options.

Best regards!
