Although the moon's distance from earth varies each month because of its eccentric orbit, the moon's mean distance from Earth is nonetheless increasing at the rate of about 3.8 centimeters (1.5 inches) per year
Answer:
The equation: (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 2NH4(+) + SO4(-2)
The number of moles = 5 g / 132.14 g/mol = 0.038 mol
The number of molecules = 0.038 X 6.022x10^23 = 2.29x10^23
the number of positive ions present in the ammonium sulphate solution:
2 positive ions for every 1 molecule of (NH₄)₂SO₄
so 2 x 2.29x10^23 = 4.58x10^23
the number of negative ions present in the ammonium sulphate solution
1 negative ion for every 1 molecule of (NH₄)₂SO₄
so 1 x 2.29x10^23 = 2.29x10^23
the total number of ions present in the ammonium sulphate solution
4.58x10^23 + 2.29x10^23 = 6.87x10^23
