Answer:

Molarity of the solution? 0,262 M.

Concentration of the potassium cation? 0,786 M.

Concentration of the phosphate anion? 0,262 M.

Explanation:

Potassium phosphate (K₃PO₄; 212,27 g/mol) dissolves in water thus:

K₃PO₄ → 3 K⁺ + PO₄³⁻ <em>(1)</em>

Molarity is an unit of chemical concentration given in moles of solute (K₃PO₄) per liters of solution.

There are 250 mL of solution≡0,25 L

The moles of K₃PO₄ are:

13,9 g of K₃PO₄ ×\frac{1mol}{212,27 g} = 0,0655 moles of K₃PO₄

The molarity of the solution is:

\frac{0,0655 moles}{0,25L} = 0,262 M

In (1) you can see that 1 mole of K₃PO₄ produces 3 moles of potassium cation. The moles of potassium cation are:

0,0655 moles×3 = 0,1965 moles

The concentration is:

\frac{0,1965 moles}{0,25L} = 0,786 M

The moles of K₃PO₄ are the same than moles of PO₄³⁻, thus, concentration of phosphate anion is the same than concentration of K₃PO₄. 0,262 M

I hope it helps!

Select the correct answer.<br> Which characteristic is a property of water?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer: A. It is made of polar molecules.

Explanation:

A polar molecule refers to a molecule that has a covalent bond but has an uneven distribution of electrons due to an atom in the molecule having strong electronegativity which will attract more of the electrons from the other atom.

Water is such a molecule because Oxygen has strong electronegativity which leads to electrons being pulled to it.

How many sigma and pi bonds does it contain ch3chchco2h?
ira [324]
Answer:
            But-2-enoic acid has 11 Sigma Bonds and 2 Pi Bonds.

Explanation:
                   The sigma bonds which are formed due to head to head overlap of partally filled orbitals are shown in red color, while Pi bonds which are formed after the formation of sigma bond by overlap of orbitals perpendicular to the sigma bond are shown in blue color.
