Using 1.0x10-6 M as the quantitative precipitation criterion, containing 0.10 M from each cation it may be possible to separate Cu2 + and Mg2 + in a solution by precipitating them as hydroxides. Is it? for Cu(OH)2 solubility product constant  = 4.8x10-20 ; for Mg(OH) solubility product constant  = 7.1x10-12 )
