Even though desalination is expensive harmful and takes too much energy, we still use it. Why?

Using a value of ksp = 1.8 x 10-2 for the reaction pbcl2 pb+2(aq) + 2cl -(aq). if the value of ksp was determined to be only 1.2 x 10-2: too much solid has dissolved. additional precipitate is forming. the solution is unsaturated. the ions are now combining to reduce their concentrations.

The twister and runaway train are two coasters at the same amusement park. both coasters start at the same height. the coaster for the twister is twice the mass of the coaster for the runaway train. which roller coaster has greater gravitational potential energy at the start of the ride?

If anyone would be able to me out with these three questions it would be these are from the chem 2202 course.
