<u>Answer:</u> Osmolarity of the sodium chloride solution is 18 Osmol/L.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Osmolarity is defined as the the concentration of the solution which is expressed as the total number of solution particles present in one liter of solvent.

We are given the molarity of the solution which is 3mol/L and to convert it into osmolarity, we will multiply the number of osmoles that are produced by the solute.

Osmole is defined as the particles that contribute to the osmotic pressure of a solution.

The solute given here is sodium chloride (NaCl). Number of osmoles can be determined by the dissociation of this solvent into ions.

The equation given by the dissociation of NaCl:

NaCl\rightarrow Na^++Cl^-

1 mole of sodium chloride produces 2 moles of ions.

So, 3 moles of sodium chloride will produce = (3 × 2) = 6 moles of ions.

Hence, osmolarity of the sodium chloride solution will be 6\times 3mol/L=18Osmol/L

Give the formulas for all of the elements that exist as diatomic molecules under normal conditions. See if you can do this witho
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

They are:

H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, and I2.

Note: whether the element At molecule is monoatomic or diatomic is incredibly arguable. While some say it exists as diatomic because it is a halogen like bromine, iodine etc, At is in fact extremely unstable and no one has ever really studied the molecules on it, so, when others say it is monoatomic, this is also based on calculations. But the other 7 elements listen above is for sure diatomic.
