an aqueous solution contains three solutes. one liter contains: 0.200 moles of calcium chloride, 0.150 moles of magnesium chloride, and 0.750 moles of sodium chloride. how many grams of cl are there per liter of this solution? a. 39.0 g b. 51.4 g c. 78.0 g d. 80.3 g e. 103 g

Respuesta :

Based on the dissociation of each of the given salts, we can calculate that there are b. 51.5 g of chloride ions per liter of the solution.

Each mol of calcium chloride (CaCl₂) dissociates to give 2 moles of chloride ions. The number of moles of chloride ions that comes from calcium chloride is:

2 * 0.200 mol = 0.400 mol

Each mol of magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) dissociates to give 2 moles of chloride ions. The number of moles of chloride ions that comes from magnesium chloride is:

2 * 0.150 mol = 0.300 mol

Each mol of sodium chloride (NaCl) dissociates to give 1 mol of chloride ions. The number of moles of chloride ions that comes from sodium chloride is thus 0.750 mol

The total number of moles (n) of chloride ions in the solution is:

n = 0.400 mol + 0.300 mol + 0.750 mol

n = 1.450 mol

Now, we can use the molar mass of the chloride ion (M = 35.5 g/mol) to calculate the mass (m) of chloride ions in 1 liter of solution:

n = m/M ⇒ m = n*M

m = 1.450 mol * 35.5 g/mol

m = 51.475 g
