Short Answer

Expert verified
In summary, the number of moles of each ion present in the given solutions are: (a) Na+: 0.0400 moles, Cl-: 0.0400 moles (b) K+: 0.210 moles, PO43-: 0.0700 moles (c) Al3+: 0.288 moles, NO3-: 0.864 moles

Step by step solution

01

Find the moles for each solution

Firstly, we have to find the total moles of each compound using the formula: Moles = Volume × Molarity Note that the given volume is 2.00 × 10^2 cm³, which we need to convert to liters because Molarity is in moles per liter. \(1 L = 1000 cm^{3}\), so \((2.00 \times 10^{2} cm^{3}) = 0.200 L\). Now let's find the moles for each compound: (a) Moles of NaCl = Molarity × Volume = 0.200 M × 0.200 L = 0.0400 moles (b) Moles of K3PO4 = Molarity × Volume = 0.350 M × 0.200 L = 0.0700 moles (c) Moles of Al(NO3)3 = Molarity × Volume = 1.44 M × 0.200 L = 0.288 moles

Calculate moles for the ions of each compound

Now we will break each compound into its constituent ions to find the number of moles for each ion: (a) 1 mole of NaCl gives 1 mole of Na+ and 1 mole of Cl-. So, Moles of Na+: 0.0400 moles Moles of Cl-: 0.0400 moles (b) 1 mole of K3PO4 gives 3 moles of K+ and 1 mole of PO43-. So, Moles of K+: 3 × 0.0700 moles = 0.210 moles Moles of PO43-: 0.0700 moles (c) 1 mole of Al(NO3)3 gives 1 mole of Al3+ and 3 moles of NO3-. So, Moles of Al3+: 0.288 moles Moles of NO3-: 3 × 0.288 moles = 0.864 moles In summary, the number of moles of each ion present in the given solutions are: (a) Na+: 0.0400 moles, Cl-: 0.0400 moles (b) K+: 0.210 moles, PO43-: 0.0700 moles (c) Al3+: 0.288 moles, NO3-: 0.864 moles

Our task is to measure the volume of blood in a live hippopotamus. One way to do this would be to drain its blood into a suitable container and measure its volume. Aside from the obviously disastrous effect this method would have on the hippo, it would not be very accurate since some blood would still remain behind in the tissues. Instead, we will inject the hippo with \(2.00 \mathrm{~mL}\) of a \(2.00 \mathrm{M}\) dye solution which the hippo will not appreciably metabolize or excrete in one hour, and then measure the dye concentration in the bloodstream after 30 minutes (which should be sufficient time for the dye to thoroughly mix in the bloodstream). After 30 minutes, the concentration of the dye in a \(78.0 \mathrm{~mL}\) blood sample was found to be \(0.0000125 \mathrm{M}\). What is the volume of blood in the hippo?

A student dilutes \(75.0 \mathrm{~mL}\) of a \(2.00 \mathrm{M}\) solution of iron(III) nitrate with sufficient water to prepare \(2.00 \mathrm{~L}\) of solution. (a) What is the molar concentration of iron(III) nitrate in the diluted solution? Once in solution, the iron(III) nitrate exists not intact but rather as dissociated ions. What are the molar concentrations (b) of \(\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}(a q)\) in the diluted solution and (c) of \(\mathrm{NO}^{3-}(a q)\) in the diluted solution?

What do we mean when we say that solute particles diffuse through a solution?

The ionic lattice in which compound requires the most energy to break: \(\mathrm{KCl}, \mathrm{Mg}(\mathrm{OH})_{2}\), or \(\mathrm{NaNO}_{3}\) ? Explain your answer.

A student dilutes \(45.0 \mathrm{~mL}\) of a \(0.500 \mathrm{M}\) solution of aluminum sulfate with sufficient water to prepare \(1.50 \mathrm{~L}\) of solution. (a) What is the molar concentration of aluminum sulfate in the diluted solution? Once in solution, the aluminum sulfate exists not intact but rather as dissociated ions. What are the molar concentrations (b) of \(\mathrm{Al}^{3+}(a q)\) in the diluted solution and (c) of \(\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-}(a q)\) in the diluted solution?
