Chapter 18, Problem 43QP

Consider the following reaction at $\text{25°C}$:

${\text{Fe(OH)}}_{\text{2}}\text{(}s\text{) }\rightleftarrows {\text{ Fe}}^{\text{2+}}\text{ (}aq{\text{) + 2OH}}^{\text{-}}\text{ (}aq\text{)}$

Calculate $\Delta G°$ for the reaction. $K_{\text{sp}}\text{ for Fe}{\left(\text{OH}\right)}_{\text{2}}\text{is 1}\text{.6 }\times \text{ 1}{\text{0}}^{\text{-14}}\text{.}$
