CaCO₃ partially dissociates in water as Ca²⁺ and CO₃²⁻. The balanced equation is,
CaCO₃(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)
Initial Y - -
Change -X +X +X
Equilibrium Y-X X X
Ksp for the CaCO₃(s) is 3.36 x 10⁻⁹ M²
Ksp = [Ca²⁺(aq)][CO₃²⁻(aq)]
3.36 x 10⁻⁹ M² = X * X
3.36 x 10⁻⁹ M² = X²
X = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ M
Hence the solubility of CaCO₃(s) = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ M
= 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ mol/L
Molar mass of CaCO₃ = 100 g mol⁻¹
Hence the solubility of CaCO₃ = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ mol/L x 100 g mol⁻¹
= 5.79 x 10⁻³ g/L

Explanation:
For neutral atoms, the number of valence electrons is equal to the atom's main group number. The main group number for an element can be found from its column on the periodic table. For example, carbon is in group 4 and has 4 valence electrons. Oxygen is in group 6 and has 6 valence electrons.
