Answer to Question #112516 in General Chemistry for Kaylei

Question

What is the molarity of lithium ions in the solution

Answer 1

We calculate molarity according to the formula:

The molality of ions depends on the substance that was dissolved.

For example, lithium ions in a 0.302 m solution of Li3PO4 (assuming the compound dissociates completely):

Each Li3PO4 gives 3Li-ions,

so M (Li⁺) = 3 * 0.302 = 0,906 M
