Answer:
The correct answer is option B.
Explanation:
Solubility product is defined as the product of concentration of ions present in a solution each raised to the power its stoichiometric ratio.
The equation for the ionization of the magnesium hydroxide is given as:
[tex]A_xB_y\leftrightharpoons xA^{y+}+yB^{x-}[/tex]
xS yS
Here, S = concentration of compound dissolved in solvent via dissociation
Expression for the solubility product of [tex]A_xB_y[/tex] will be:
[tex]K_{sp}=[A^{y+}]^x[B^{x-}]^y\\\\K_{sp}=(xS)^x\times (yS)^y[/tex]
As we can see,
[tex]K_{sp}\propto [S][/tex]
Hence, the correct answer is option B.
