Question

Calculate each of the following quantities: (a) Total number of ions in 38.1 g of SrF₂

Answer 1

The total number of ions in 38.1 g of SrF₂ is 5.479 x 10²³.

What are ions?

Ions are the elements with a charge on them. It happens when they share electrons with other atoms to form a compound.

We have to calculate the total number of ions in 38.1 g of .

The molar mass of SrF₂ = 125.62 g/mol

The number of moles = 38.1 g of  1.0 mol / 125.62  = 0.30329 moles

Given that, total moles of SrF₂ ions in  = 1.0 mol of + 2.0 moles of  = 3.0 moles

Total moles of ions in 0.30329 moles of

= (0.30329 moles of SrF₂) x 3.0 / 1.0  = 0.90988 mol ions

We know that,

1.0 mole of ions = 6.023 x 10²³ ions

Thus, the number of total ions = ( 0.90988 mol ions) x  6.023 x 10²³ / 1.0 mol = 5.479 x 10²³ ions

Thus, the number of ions is in 38.1 g of 5.479 x 10²³ ions
