Answer:
Force of attraction = 35.96 N
Explanation:
Given: charge on anion = -2
Charge on cation = +2
Distance = 1 nm = m
To calculate: Force of attraction.
Solution: The force of attraction is calculated by using equation,
---(1)
where, q represents the charge and the subscripts 1 and 2 represents cation and anion.
k =
F = force of attraction
r = distance between ions.
Substituting all the values in the equation (1) the equation becomes
Force of attraction = 35.96 N
The concentration of solution in M or mol/L can be calculated using the following formula:
.... (1)
Here, n is number of moles and V is volume of solution in L.
The molecular formula of potassium sulfate is thus, there are 2 moles of potassium in 1 mol of potassium sulfate.
1 mol of potassium will be there in 0.5 mol of potassium sulfate.
Mass of potassium is 4.15 g, molar mass is 39.1 g/mol.
Number of moles can be calculated as follows:
Here, m is mass and M is molar mass
Putting the values,
Thus, number of moles of will be
.
The volume of solution is 225 mL, converting this into L,
Thus,
Putting the values in equation (1),
Therefore, concentration of potassium sulfate solution is 0.236 M.
