Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`Mg(OH)_(2)hArr 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 `
