The Fe2+ concentration in a saturated solution of iron(II) hydroxide is measured and found to be 1.28×10-5 M. Use this information to calculate a Ksp value for iron(II) hydroxide.
Ksp =
Fe(OH)2 ----------------> Fe+2 + 2OH-
s 2s
Ksp = [Fe+2][OH-]2
= s*(2s)^2
= 4s^3
Ksp = 4*(1.28*10^-5)^3
= 8.06*10^-15
