### Solubility and Precipitation of Metal Hydroxides

An acidic solution is 9 mM in each of the following metal ions: \( \text{Sn}^{2+}, \text{Co}^{2+}, \text{Mn}^{2+}, \text{Pb}^{2+} \). View the Solubility Product Constant Table provided.

**(a) At what pH do the metal hydroxides begin to precipitate?**

- \( \text{Sn(OH)}_2: \) pH 1.89  
- \( \text{Co(OH)}_2: \) pH 7.9  
- \( \text{Mn(OH)}_2: \) pH 8.4  
- \( \text{Pb(OH)}_2: \) pH 5.1  

**Substance** | **\( K_{sp} \) at 25 °C**
--- | ---
**Aluminum**
\( \text{Al(OH)}_3 \) | \( 1.9 \times 10^{-33} \)

**Barium**
\( \text{Ba(OH)}_2 \) | \( 5.0 \times 10^{-3} \)  
\( \text{BaCO}_3 \) | \( 8.1 \times 10^{-9} \)  
\( \text{BaSO}_4 \) | \( 1.1 \times 10^{-10} \)

**Cadmium**
\( \text{Cd(OH)}_2 \) | \( 2.5 \times 10^{-14} \)  
\( \text{CdCO}_3 \) | \( 5.2 \times 10^{-12} \)

**Calcium**
\( \text{Ca(OH)}_2 \) | \( 5.5 \times 10^{-6} \)  
\( \text{CaCO}_3 \) | \( 3.8 \times 10^{-9} \)  
\( \text{CaF}_2 \) | \( 3.9 \times 10^{-11} \)

**Chromium**
\( \text{Cr(OH)}_3 \) | \( 6.3 \times 10^{-31} \)

**Cobalt**
\( \text{Co(OH)}_2 \
