Question #103106

what is the molarity of each ion present in aqueous solutions of the following compounds prepared by dissolivng 28.0 g of each compound in water to make 785 mL of solution?
a. Potassium oxide
b.Sodium hydrogen carbonate
c. Magnesium phosphate

Expert's answer

Molarity is nu4mber of moles compound in number volume (C)

M=moles/volume (Concentrations)

K2О reaction with water: K2O+H2O=2KOH

dissotiation in solution: KOH<=>K++ OH-

n(K2O)=1/2n(KOH)=1/2n(K+)=/2n(OH-)

n=28.0/(39*2+16)=0.2978 moles

n(K+)=0.5957

n(OH-)=0.5957

Them molarity is 0.7588


2)NaHCO3 => Na++HCO3-

n(NaHCO3)=n(Na+)=n(HCO3-)=0.3337

Molarity=0.4251 moles in liter


3)Mg3(PO4)2=3Mg2+ +2PO43-

n(Mg3PO4)2)=>1/3*n(Mg2+)=1/2*n(PO43-)

n=0.1065

n(Mg)=0.3195

n(PO4)=0.213

Molarity=0.407

Molarity=0.2713
