Answer:

a.) 0.0788 M

b.) 0.0788 M

c.) 0.156 M

Explanation:

To find the molarity of the solution, you need to (1) convert grams FeI₂ to moles FeI₂ (via the molar mass from periodic table) and then (2) calculate the molarity (via the molarity equation using the moles and volume). To find the concentration of each ion, you need to multiply the compound's molarity by the amount of each ion in the molecule.

(Step 1)

Molar Mass (FeI₂): 55.845 g/mol + 2(126.90 g/mol)

Molar Mass (FeI₂): 309.645 g/mol

12.2 g FeI₂              1 mole
------------------  x  ---------------------  =  0.0394 mole FeI₂
                             309.645 g

(Step 2)

500 mL / 1,000 = 0.5 L

Molarity (M) = moles / volume (L)

Molarity = 0.0394 mole / 0.5 L

Molarity = 0.0788 M

(Step 3)

FeI₂ = 1 iron cation and 2 iodide anions

Iron (II) Cation: 1 x 0.0788 M = 0.0788 M

Iodide Anion: 2 x 0.0788 M = 0.156 M
