Answer: K_{sp}=1.25\times 10^{-14}

pK_{sp}=13.90

Explanation:

Solubility product is defined as the equilibrium constant in which a solid ionic compound is dissolved to produce its ions in solution. It is represented as K_{sp}  

The equation for the ionization of magnesium phosphate is given as:

Mg_3(PO_4)_2\rightarrow 3Mg^{2+}+2PO_4^{3-}

 When the solubility of Mg_3(PO_4)_2 is S moles/liter, then the solubility of Mg^{2+} will be 3S moles\liter and solubility of PO_4^{3-} will be 2S moles/liter.

Thus S = 0.173 g/L or \frac{0.173g/L}{262.8g/mol}=0.00065mol/L

K_{sp}=(3S)^3\times (2S)^2

K_{sp}=108S^5

K_{sp}=108\times (0.00065)^5=1.25\times 10^{-14}

pK_{sp}=-log(K_{sp})=\log (1.25\times 10^{-14})=13.90

How does a scientific theory differ from a guess or an opinion?​
natima [27]

Answer:

Scientific theory differs from a guess or opinion because a scientific theory is a system of ideas that explains many related observation and is supported by a large body of evidence acquired through scientific investigation while guesses and opinions may not reliably predict an outcome, have evidence to back up the theory

What happens when magnesium reacts with dilute acid?
iogann1982 [59]

The magnesium dissolves to form magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas is released.

Mg  + 2HCl    -----> MgCl2  + H2(g).
