Chemistry

In a waste-water treatment plant a 1.00x103 L tankwith 3.00x10-2 MNa2CO3(aq) is mixed with a2.00x103 L tank with of 6.00x10-3 MNa2CO3(aq). Assume sodium carbonatebehaves as a strong electrolyte.

a) How many moles of sodium ions arein the product?

b) What is the concentration (in M) ofsodium ions in the product?

A) Number of moles of sodium carbonate after mixing the two tanks can be calculated as below:

Total concentration of Na2CO3 = 3.00x10-2 M + 6.00x10-3 M

                                              = 0.036M

Total volume of water is: (1.00x103 + 2.00x103) L

                                  = 3000L

in 1 mole of Na2CO3 ------------ 2 moles of Na+ ions are there.

no. of moles = molarity * volume

                   = 0.036M * 3000L

                   = 108 moles of Na2CO3

Hence there will be 108* 2 = 216 moles of Na+ ions.

B) Concentration of sodium ions in the product:

Molarity = no.of moles/ volume in L

            = 216 moles/ 3000 L

           = 0.072M
