SOMEONE ASKED 👇
Calculate the molar solubility of Ni(OH)2 when buffered….?
HERE THE ANSWERS 👇
-
You need the Ksp or Kb whichever you have listed in your book… look it up. Probably Ksp because Ni(OH)2 is a solid.
Ni(OH)2(s) <--> Ni(2+) + 2 OH(-) Ksp = [Ni(2+)] [OH(-)]^2 so ... [Ni(2+)] = Ksp / [OH(-)]^2
the solubility of Ni(OH)2 = [Ni(2+)]

pH = 8.0 means pOH = 14- ph = 6 === [OH-] = 10^-6
so … from above … [Ni(2+)] = Ksp / [OH(-)]^2
[Ni(2+)] = Ksp / (10^-6)^2
…. after you get Ksp just use a calculator.
2 and 3 are done the same way.
