    The 0.001M solution of \[Mg{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{2}}\] is adjusted to pH 9, \[{{K}_{sp}}\] of \[Mg{{(OH)}_{2}}\] is \[8.9\times {{10}^{-12}}\]. At this pH

    A) \[Mg{{(OH)}_{2}}\] will be precipitated

    B) \[Mg{{(OH)}_{2}}\] is not precipitated

    C) \[Mg{{\left( OH \right)}_{3}}\] will be precipitated

    D) \[Mg{{\left( OH \right)}_{3}}\] is not precipitated

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[pH=9;\left[ {{H}^{+}} \right]={{10}^{-9}};\left[ O{{H}^{-}} \right]={{10}^{-5}};\] \[[M{{g}^{2+}}]=1\times {{10}^{-3}};[M{{g}^{2+}}]{{[O{{H}^{-}}]}^{2}}=1\times {{10}^{-13}}\] given \[{{K}_{sp}}\] of \[Mg{{\left( OH \right)}_{2}}=8.9\times {{10}^{-12}}\] which is more than\[1\times {{10}^{-13}}\]. Hence \[Mg{{(OH)}_{2}}\] will not precipitate
