The ionic strength of a solution is the amount of ion concentration in it. It's written in the form of I. It has an impact on ion activity. The ion interaction with water and other ions in the solution is marked. The ionic strength formula is used to calculate half of each ionic species' total concentration.

The formula for ionic strength is as follows:

The given data is

0.2mM solution of${\mathrm{KNO}}_3$

Calculate the ionic strength by using the ionic strength calculation formula

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{\mu }=\frac{1}{2}\left[\left[{\mathrm{K}}^{+}\right]{\left(+1\right)}^2+\left[{{\mathrm{NO}}_3}^{-}\right]{\left(-1\right)}^2\right] \\ =\left(\frac{1}{2}\left[\left[0.2\right]{\left(+1\right)}^2+\left[0.2\right]{\left(-1\right)}^2\right]\right)\mathrm{mM} \\ =\left(\frac{1}{2}\left[0.4\right]\right)\mathrm{mM} \\ =0.2\mathrm{mM} \end{gathered}$$

The ionic strength of 0.2mM KNO is 0.2mM.

The given information is

0.2mM solution of${\mathrm{C}}_{{\mathrm{s}}_2}{\mathrm{CrO}}_4$

Calculate the ionic strength by using the ionic strength calculation formula

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{\mu }=\frac{1}{2}\left[2\left[C{s}^{+}\right]{\left(+1\right)}^2+\left[Cr{O}_{{}_3}^{2-}\right]{\left(-2\right)}^2\right] \\ =\left(\frac{1}{2}\left[\left(0.4\right){\left(+1\right)}^2+\left[0.2\right]{\left(-2\right)}^2\right]\right)\mathrm{mM} \\ =\left(\frac{1}{2}\left[1.2\right]\right)\mathrm{mM} \\ =0.6\mathrm{mM} \end{gathered}$$

The ionic strength of 0.2mM ${\mathrm{Cs}}_2{\mathrm{CrO}}_4$is 0.6mM.

The given data is

$0.2\mathrm{m}{\mathrm{MMgCl}}_2$plus$0.3\mathrm{mM}{\mathrm{AlCl}}_3$

Calculate the ionic strength by using the ionic strength calculation formula

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{\mu }=\frac{1}{2}\left[2\left[M{g}^{2+}\right]{\left(+2\right)}^2+2\left[C{l}^{-}\right]{\left(-1\right)}^2+\left[A{l}^{3+}\right]{\left(3\right)}^2+3\left[C{l}^{-}\right]{\left(-1\right)}^2\right] \\ =\left(\frac{1}{2}\left[\left(0.2\right){\left(+2\right)}^2+\left[0.4\right]{\left(-1\right)}^2+\left[0.3\right]{\left(3\right)}^2+\left[0.9\right]{\left(-1\right)}^2\right]\right)\mathrm{mM} \\ =\left(\frac{1}{2}\left[0.8+0.4+2.7+0.9\right]\right)\mathrm{mM} \\ =2.4\mathrm{mM} \end{gathered}$$
