Given that the solubility product constants $(K_{sp})$ follow the order $K_{sp}(Mg(OH)_2) > K_{sp}(Zn(OH)_2) > K_{sp}(Fe(OH)_3)$,what is the order of precipitation of these hydroxides?

  • A
    $Fe(OH)_3, Zn(OH)_2, Mg(OH)_2$
  • B
    $Mg(OH)_2, Zn(OH)_2, Fe(OH)_3$
  • C
    $Zn(OH)_2, Fe(OH)_3, Mg(OH)_2$
  • D
    $Zn(OH)_2, Mg(OH)_2, Fe(OH)_3$
