In the laboratory you dissolve 15.6 g of
potassium nitrate in a volumetric flask and add
water to a total volume of 250 mL.
What is the molarity of the solution? M.
What is the concentration of the potassium
cation? M.
What is the concentration of the nitrate
anion? M.
molarity = weight of solute*1000/Gram molar mass *volume of solution in ml
= 15.6*1000/101*250 = 15600/25250 = 0.6178M
KNO3 ------> K+ + NO3-
0.6178M 0.6178M 0.6178M
concentraction of potassium cation = 0.6178M
concentraction of nitrate anion = 0.6178M
