This problem is simply converting the concentration from molality to molarity. Molality has units of mol solute/kg solvent, while molarity has units of mol solute/L solution.
2.24 mol H2SO4/kg H2O * (0.25806 kg H2SO4/mol H2SO4) = 0.578 kg H2SO4/kg H2O
That means the solution weighs a total of 1 kg + 0.578 kg = 1.578 kg. Then, convert it to liters using the density data:
1.578 kg * (1000g / 1kg) * (1 mL/1.135 g) = 1390 mL or 1.39 L.
Hence, the molarity is
2.24/1.39 = 1.61 M
I would say the answer is A.
Answer:
It is a salt of two polyatomic ammonium ions and one polyatomic sulfate ion
Explanation:
Ammonium Sulfate is an ionic compound formed by two polyatomic ions, Ammonium NH+4 and Sulfate SO−4 . ... Therefore, it will take two +1 ammonium ions to balance the one -2 sulfate ion. This will make the formula for Ammonium Sulfate (NH4)2SO4
Hydroxyl ions are OH⁻ while hydronium ions are H₃O⁺ which is essentially H⁺ ions. The formula for pH is: pH = -log[H⁺]. So, the greater the concentration of H⁺ is, the lower the pH which indicates acidity. On the other hand, the greater the concentration of OH⁻, the greater the pH which indicates basicity. This is also a consequence of the equation: pH + pOH = 14.
