What is the molar solubility of Mg(OH)2 in a basic solution with a pH of 11.00? Ksp for Mg(OH)2 is 5.6x10^-12.
Added by Teresa H.
Step 1
First, we need to find the concentration of OH- ions in the solution. We can use the pH formula to find the pOH and then the concentration of OH- ions. pH + pOH = 14 11.00 + pOH = 14 pOH = 3.00 Now, we can find the concentration of OH- ions: [OH-] = 10^(-pOH) Show more…
