Explanation / Answer

1)

pH = 4.40

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 9.60

[OH-] = 2.51 x 10^-10 M

Fe(OH)3 <-------------------> Fe+3 + 3OH-

                                             S          2.51 x 10^-10

Ksp = [Fe+3][OH-]^3

2.5 x 10^-39 = S x (2.51 x 10^-10 )^3

S = 1.58 x 10^-10 M

molar solubility = 1.58 x 10^-10 M

pH = 8.18

pOH = 5.82

[OH-] = 1.51 x 10^-6 M

Ksp = [Fe+3][OH-]^3

2.5 x 10^-39 = S x (1.51 x 10^-6 )^3

S = 7.21 x 10^-22 M

molar solubility = 7.21 x 10^-22 M
