The concentration of Mg2+ in seawater is 0.053 M. At what pH will 99% of the Mg2+ be precipitated as the hydroxide salt? (Ksp for Mg(OH)2 = 8.9 ✕ 10−12. Assume that all solutions are at 25°C.) I have tried solving for the pOH and then subtracting that from 14 to find the pH, but it is wrong everytime. I don't understand where I'm going wrong.
Unlike propanoic acid, magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2 does not dissolve well in water. The Ksp of Mg(OH)2 is only about 2 × 10–11. Yet, what will be the result if 75 mL of 0.0050 M Mg2+ are mixed together with 55 mL of 0.00010 M OH–? Write an appropriate expression (equation) for the Ksp of Mg(OH)2(s). Then, calculate Qsp and state accordingly whether a precipitate will form or not
If 100.0 g calcium phosphate (Ksp= 1.3 x 10^-32) are placed in enough water to generate 750.0 mL of solution, calculate the molar solubility of the calcium phosphate solution and the molar solubility of the calcium ion if 30.0 mL of 0.400 M calcium nitrate solution is added to the original solution.

What is the predominant form of this hardness at a pH of 7.5?(ii) Provide a balanced chemical reaction showing how this hardness can be removed by the addition of lime (Ca(OH)2).(iii) How much lime is required to precipitate the hardness in 2.5 litres of this tap water? How much calcium carbonate will be precipitated? Assume the reaction is 100% efficient and the solubility of calcium carbonate under these conditions is 40 mg/LAtomic weights:Ca = 40H = 1C = 12 O = 16(b) Explain and discuss the concept of CT values to evaluate the performance of chemical oxidation processes as disinfectants during drinking water treatment.
A 50-mL solution of 0.5005 N standard NaOH was added to a 0.9250-g sample of Aspirin and was boiled for 10 minutes. After cooling a full pipet of phenolphthalein was added to the solution before it was titrated with 24.7 mL of 0.5015 N standard HCl solution until the disappearance of the pink color. The same procedure was carried using a blank which consumed 4.6 mL of the same standard acid. Calculate for the %Aspirin in the sample. Atom weights: C =12, H =1, O =16.
you want to separate Ni2+ and Mn2+ by precipitating the corresponding sulphidesfrom each other.

If Ksp of AgCl(s) is 1.77 x 10-10, will a precipitate form when a sample of AgNO3 (aq) ismixed with a sample of NaCl (aq) to make a solution where the concentration of AgNO3(aq) is 0.10 M and NaCl (aq) is 0.090 M? All I know is that if the Q value is higher than the Ksp Value it results in a precipitate.
