Answer: 3 bromite ions and
Explanation:
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
Here scandium is having an oxidation state of +3 called as cation and bromite is an anion with oxidation state of -1 called as
. Thus 1 Scandium ion combines with three bromite ions and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
Answer:
The concentration of the solution is 5.8168 × mol.
Explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the concentration of the solution.
The unit of this is mol/dm^3
So the first thing to do here is to calculate the number of moles of the solute present, which is the number of moles of AlCO3
The number of moles = mass/molar mass
molar mass of AlCO3 = 27 + 12 + 3(16) = 27 + 12 + 48 = 87g/mol
Number of moles = 33.4/87 = 0.384 moles
This 0.384 moles is present in 660 L
x moles will be present in 1 dm^3
Recall 1 dm^3 = 1L
x * 660 = 0.384 * 1
x = 0.384/660 = 0.00058168 = 5.8168 * 10^-4 mol/dm^3
