reactants are aluminium+copper chloride
Answer:
1.44 x 10²⁵ ions of Na⁺
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of NaCl = 1.4kg = 1400g
Unknown:
Number of ions of sodium = ?
Solution:
The compound NaCl in ionic form can be written as;
NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻
In 1 mole of NaCl we have 1 mole of sodium ions
Now, let us find the number of moles in NaCl;
Number of moles = 
Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol
Number of moles = 
= 23.93mol
So;
Since 1 mole of NaCl gives 1 mole of Na⁺
In 23.93 mole of NaCl will give 23.93 mole of Na⁺
1 mole of a substance = 6.02 x 10²³ ions of a substance
23.93 mole of a substance = 6.02 x 10²³ x 23.93
= 1.44 x 10²⁵ ions of Na⁺
In binary ionic compounds the name of the cation (Metal) is first, so that’s how you know.
If you'd like the full working, here it is:
I calculated this by using the formula triangle.

Of moles Mass
To calculate the number if moles in a substance, you need to divide the Mass by the Formula mass. You get the formula mass by adding the atomic masses of the elements in the compound together. In this situation, H2O, it would be two hydrogen molecules plus one oxygen molecule which is 2 + 16. This is because the atomic mass of Hydrogen is 1 and the atomic mass of Oxygen is 16.
Now that we have the Formula mass we can go ahead and do the calculation since we already have the Mass. You do as follows:
Mass divided by Formula mass which is in this case - 25 divided by 18
By doing this calculation you will get the answer which is 1.38 moles which can be rounded to 1.4
Hope this helps :)
