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!

Depression what are the effects to the brain
oksian1 [2.3K]
Depression can affect a person psychologically, it also has the potential to affect physical structures in the brain. These physical changes range from inflammation and oxygen restriction, to actual shrinking. Depression can impact the central control center of nervous system. Depression can cause amygdala to enlarge. This is a part of the brain associated with emotional responses. When amygdala becomes larger and more active, it causes sleep disturbances, changes in activity levels, and changes in other hormones.
