The maximum pH of a solution which is `0.10 M` is `Mg^(2+)` from which `Mg(OH)_(2)` is not precipitated is [`K_(sp)` of `Mg(OH)_(2) = 1.2 xx 10^(-11) M^(3)`]A. `4.96`B. `6.96`C. `7.04`D. `9.04`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
For `Mg(OH)_(2)` not to be precipitated
`[OH^(-)] lt [(K_(sp)(Mg(OH)_(2)))/([Mg^(2+)])]^(1//2)`
`[OH^(-)] lt [(1.2x10^(-11)M^(3))/(0.10M)]^(1//2) lt 1.035x10^(-5)M`
`pOH lt 4.36,pH gt 14-4.36 = 9.04`
