Why does adding a common ion to a saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt increase the chance of precipitation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Ionic product may increase beyond the limit

A saturated solution initially has Q equal to Ksp. Adding a common ion increases the concentration of one of the ions, so the ionic product Q rises and can become greater than Ksp. The excess ions then combine to form solid salt until equilibrium is restored. This is the common-ion effect. Ksp itself remains fixed at a given temperature; it does not become infinite.
