The correct answer is: $1 \times 10^{-10}$
The solubility of $\mathrm{BaSO}_4$ in $g /$ /litre is given $2.33 \times 10^{-3}$
$\because$ in mole/litre. $n=\frac{W}{m . w t}=1 \times 10^{-5}=\frac{2.33 \times 10^{-3}}{233}$

Because $\mathrm{BaSO}_4$ is a compound
$K_{s p}=S^2=\left[1 \times 10^{-5}\right]^2=1 \times 10^{-10}$
