The `K_(sp)` of `Mg(OH)_(2)` is `1 xx 10^(-12), 0.01 M Mg(OH)_(2)` will precipitate at the limiting pHA. 3B. 9C. 5D. 8

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`Mg(OH)_(2) Mg^(2+) + 2OH^(-)`
`K_(sp) = [Mg^(2+)] [OH^(-)]^(2)`
`1 xx 10^(-12) = 0.01 [OH^(-)]^(2)`
`[OH^(-)]^(2) = 1 xx 10^(-10) rArr [OH^(-)] = 10^(-5)`
`[H^(+) = 10^(-14)//10^(-5) = 10^(-9)`
`pH = -log[H^(+)] = -log[10^(-9)] = 9`.
