What are the molarity and osmolarity of a 1-liter solution that contains half a mole of calcium chloride? How many molecules of chloride would the solution contain?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Molarity = 0.5 M

Osmolarity = 0.5 x 2 = 1 Osmpl.

Molecules of Cl2 = 6.02 x [tex]10^{23}[/tex] / 4= 1.505 x [tex]10^{23}[/tex] no. of molecules

Explanation:

If we add half mole in 1L volume than molarity will obviously be 0.5 M.

The osmolarity is molarity multiplies by number of dissociates of solute that for CaCl2 are 2. So, 2 x 0.5 = 1

Half will be molecules of Ca and half will be of Cl2 for 0.5M.
