Expert Solution
Step 1

Solubility product is expressed for sparingly soluble salt and Ksp  is product of concentration of  species in solution .

The question can be tackled by calculating no of moles from Ksp after calculating molarity that is solubility hence can be calculated the no of particles and then total cancer cells that can be killed.
