How many moles are in 4.818 x 1024 chloride ions
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8.00 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L}  \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{4.818 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 8.00332225...

We have the final answer as

<h3>8.00 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

Write a net ionic equation to show that hydrobromic acid, hbr, behaves as an acid in water.
Harrizon [31]
The net ionic equation of hydrobromic acid would be HBr = H+ + Br-. As we can see, the HBr compound dissociates into ions where one ion is the hydronium ion which characterizes an acid. According to Arrhenius, an acid is a compound which releases hydronium ion in solution.

Given that the ksp of aipo4 is 9.84 x 10-21 at 25°c, calculate the molar solubility of aiop4
svp [43]
AlPO4----> Al+3 + PO4-3

Ksp= [Al+3] x [PO4-3]= 9.84 x 10^-21

Ksp= (x) (x)= x^2
 
X^2= 9.84x10-21
 
x= 9.92 x 10^-11

The molar solubility is 9.92 x 10^-11
