find the solubility of Mn(OH)2 in a buffered solution

[dentalstudent2021]

would [OH] be constant, since in a buffer ( same for H+ of HCl in a buffer, right?).

now the solubility of the compound will then be dependent on the [Mn] right ?
Thanks

Yes that's right. If it's buffered, [OH] will stay the same and the solubility of MnOH2 depends on the concentration of Mn2+

ok how about H+ of HCl in a buffered solution ....same effect right ?

Ya, same concept. H is the same as OH and Cl is the same as Mn. In a buffered solution, H+ stays constant
