The common ion effect states that the solubility of an ionic compound decreases in the presence of a common ion. For instance, adding NaCl to a solution of AgCl reduces its solubility because [Cl–] is already elevated. This effect is used in qualitative analysis (selective precipitation) and buffer solutions, where the addition of a conjugate base or acid helps stabilize pH.
