Solution

The correct option is A 4x3
The solubility product constant is the equilibrium constant for the dissolution of a solid substance into an aqueous solution. It is denoted by the symbol Ksp.
It is the product of the solubilities of the ions in moles per liter.

Given, the solubility of an aqueous solution of Mg(OH)2 is 'x'.

Mg(OH)2[Mg2+]x+2[OH]2x

Ksp=[Mg][OH]2=[x][2x]2=x.4x2=4x3.
