Chemistry

ch4aika [34]3 years ago
6 0

The square brackets are used in case of complex compounds. This is known as coordination sphere. There is a metal in the coordination sphere and ligands attached to it. This complete set of metals and ligands inside the brackets is complex ion or molecule.

The ions outside this coordination sphere are counter ions of the complex.

It represents that if the complex compound is dissolved in water it will give a complex ion and the counter ion. The atoms in the bracket cannot break there bonds and will remain un-dissociated.

If there is no such bracket then it will represent simple or binary salt.

what is the concentration of a dextrose solution prepared by diluting 14 ml of a 1.0 m dextrose solution to 25 ml using a 25 ml
allsm [11]

The concentration of a dextrose solution prepared by diluting 14 ml of a 1.0 M dextrose solution to 25 ml using a 25 ml volumetric flask is 0.56M.

Concentration is defined as the number of moles of a solute present in the specific volume of a solution.

According to the dilution law, the degree of ionization increases on a dilution and it is inversely proportional to the square root of concentration. The degree of dissociation of an acid is directly proportional to the square root of a volume.

M₁V₁=M₂V₂

Where, M₁=1.0M, V₁=14ml, M₂=?, V₂=25ml

Rearrange the formula for M₂

M₂=(M₁V₁/V₂)

Plug all the values in the formula

M₂=(1.0M×14 ml/25 ml)

M₂=14 M/25

M₂=0.56 M

Therefore, the concentration of a dextrose solution after the dilution is 0.56M.
