CaCl2 and KCl are both salts which dissociate in water
when dissolved. Assuming that the dissolution of the two salts are 100 percent,
the half reactions are:
<span>CaCl2 ---> Ca2+ + 2 Cl-</span>
KCl ---> K+ + Cl-
Therefore the total Cl- ion concentration would be coming
from both salts. First, we calculate the Cl- from each salt by using stoichiometric
ratio:
Cl- from CaCl2 = (0.2 moles CaCl2/ L) (0.25 L) (2 moles
Cl / 1 mole CaCl2)
Cl- from CaCl2 = 0.1 moles
Cl- from KCl = (0.4 moles KCl/ L) (0.25 L) (1 mole Cl / 1
mole KCl)
Cl- from KCl = 0.1 moles
Therefore the final concentration of Cl- in the solution
mixture is:
Cl- = (0.1 moles + 0.1 moles) / (0.25 L + 0.25 L)
Cl- = 0.2 moles / 0.5 moles
<span>Cl- = 0.4 moles (ANSWER)</span>
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Quantitative data refers to numbers while qualitative data refers to characteristics.
Add an alkaline compound to raise the pH to 7.2.
If the units for gases were the same as the units for numbers would be too small to be convenient.
For example, the density of iron is 7.87 g/cm³.
Using the same units, the density of hydrogen is 0.000 0899 g/cm³.
It is much more convenient to express the density in numbers that are easier to visualize: 0.0899 g/L, and that is still a small number.
