<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of sulfate ions in the solution is 0.0522 M
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the the molarity of solution:, we use the equation:

Given mass of alum = 2.17 g
Molar mass of alum = 478.39 g/mol
Volume of solution = 175 mL
Putting values in above equation, we get:

The chemical equation for the ionization of alum follows:

1 mole of alum produces 1 mole of potassium ions, 1 mole of aluminium ions, 2 moles of sulfate ions and 12 moles of water
So, concentration of sulfate ions = 
Hence, the concentration of sulfate ions in the solution is 0.0522 M
Answer:
The halogens located in group 17
Explanation:
The change in energy of a neutral atom when an electron is added is known as electron affinity. <em>Fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At) are known as halogens and conform the group 17 of the periodic table, the group that presents higher electron affinity.</em> This characteristic happens because of their atomic structures, it is easier for them to gain electrons because they are closer to form octets.
Here I present you halogens' electron affinities values:
- Fluorine (F) -328 kJ mol-1
- Chlorine (Cl) -349 kJ mol-1
- Bromine (Br) -324 kJ mol-1
- Iodine (I) -295 kJ mol-1
<em>The use of negative signs is to indicate the RELEASE of energy.</em>
I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
