Reconciling Solubility Product vs Ksp?

[rls303]

Hi,
I seem to have seen these during some q's. I just want to make sure that the Solubility Product/Qsp, is the same thing as Molar Solubility, right?

The Keq, KA, are the constants after the disassociation of the reaction and it has come to equilibrium, correct?

This was always a weird iffy area for me in Chem along with the thermodynamics of a container when you put pressure on it and what changes

That is not correct. Solubility product, Ksp, is an equilibrium constant. Molar solubility is the actual amount of a substance which dissolves (mol/L) and can be calculated given Ksp and the solubility product equilibrium expression.

Yes.
