Question: 3. Magnesium hydroxide dissolves in acidic somution according to the following balanced equation: (10) Mg(OH)2 (s) + 2H+ (aq) ---> Mg2+ (aq) + 2H2O(l) a.

3. Magnesium hydroxide dissolves in acidic somution according to the following balanced equation: (10)
Mg(OH)2 (s) + 2H+ (aq) ---> Mg2+ (aq) + 2H2O(l)
a. use the data in the chart (Appendix C - i have attached all the values) to calculate gibbs free energy at 25 degrees C. Note that for Mg2+ (aq), gibbs free energy = -454.8kJ/mol.
b. determine the equilibrium constant for this reaction at 25 degrees C.
