Answer:

Ksp of Cd(OH)2 is 2.5*10^{-14}

pH is 13

Ksp=[Cd+2][OH^-1]^2

     =(1.5*10^-5)(3*10^-5)^2

     =1.5*9*10^-15

=15.5*10^-15

=1.6*10^-14

so option 4 is correct

The solubility of Cd(OH)2, at pH = 13 at 25^{o}C is  (Ksp of Cd(OH)_{2} = 2.5 \times 10^{-14}) is 2.5 \times 10^{-12}.

Explanation:

The reaction equation for dissociation of Cd(OH)_{2} is as follows.

               Cd(OH)_{2} \rightarrow Cd^{2+} + 2OH^{-}

Let us assume that "s" moles of Cd(OH)_{2} gives "s" moles of Cd^{2+} and 2s moles of OH^{-}.

As it is given that pH of the given reaction is 13 so the value of pOH is as follows.

                        pH + pOH = 14

                        13 + pOH = 14

                                pOH = 1

Therefore,      [OH^{-}] = 10^{-1}

 Therefore, the expression for K_{sp} of this reaction is as follows.

                   K_{sp} = [s][(2s+0.1)]^{2}

                   2.5 \times 10^{-14} = [s][(2s+0.1)]^{2}

                        s = 2.5 \times 10^{-12}

Therefore, solubility of Cd(OH)_{2} is 2.5 \times 10^{-12}.
