Calculate the ionic strength for a solution containing a. 0.30 M KI b. 0.10 M Mg(NO3)2
Added by Jonathan S.
Step 1
a. For 0.30 M KI, we have two ions: K+ and I-. The concentration of each ion is 0.30 M, and their charges are +1 and -1, respectively. So, we can calculate the ionic strength: I = 1/2 * [(0.30 * (+1)^2) + (0.30 * (-1)^2)] I = 1/2 * (0.30 + 0.30) I = 1/2 * 0.60 Show more…
