If `K_(sp)" of Mg(OH)"_2" is "1.2 xx 10^(-11),` then the highest pH of the 0.1 M solution of `Mg^(2+)` ion from which `Mg(OH)_2` is not precipitated is

A

4.96

B

6.96

C

7.54

D

9.04

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`As K_(sp)" of "Mg(OH)_2=[Mg^(2+)] [OH^(-)]^2`
`[OH^(-)]^2=(1.2 xx 10^(-11))/(0.1)=1.2 xx 10^(-10) rArr [OH^(-)]=1.1 xx 10^(-5)`
`[H^+]=10^(-14)//(1.1 xx 10^(-5))=0.91 xx 10^(-9)`
`pH=-log [H^+]=-log (0.91 xx 10^(-9))=9.04`
