What is the equilibrium constant for the dissolution of copper (II) hydroxide:
Cu(OH)₂ (s)
Given the standard reduction potentials
Cu(OH)₂ (aq) + e- → Cu (s) + OH¯ (aq)
Cu²+ (aq) + e¯ →→ Cu (s)
O 5.16 x 10^-9
O 1.63 x 10^3
O 1.93 x 10^8
O 6.12 x 10^-4
Cu²+ (aq) + OH¯ (aq)
O 2.20 x 10^-20
EO = -0.15 V
Eº = +0.34 V
