(C) The dissolution equilibrium of $Zn(OH)_{2}$ is given by:$Zn(OH)_{2(s)} ightleftharpoons Zn^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2OH^{-}_{(aq)}$Let the molar solubility be $S$. The concentration of $OH^{-}$ ions from $NaOH$ is $0.1 \, M$. Since $S$ is very small,the total concentration of $OH^{-}$ is approximately $0.1 \, M$.$K_{sp} = [Zn^{2+}][OH^{-}]^{2}$$2 	imes 10^{-20} = S 	imes (0.1)^{2}$$2 	imes 10^{-20} = S 	imes 10^{-2}$$S = \frac{2 	imes 10^{-20}}{10^{-2}} = 2 	imes 10^{-18} \, M$Comparing this with $x 	imes 10^{-18} \, M$,we get $x = 2$.

The molar solubility of $Zn(OH)_{2}$ in $0.1 \, M \, NaOH$ solution is $x \times 10^{-18} \, M$. The value of $x$ is ...... . (Nearest integer)
