If 500 ml of CaCl 2 solution contains 3 . 01 × 10 22 chloride ions, molarity of the solution will be

If 500ml of CaCl2 solution contains 3.01×1022 chloride ions, molarity of the solution will be
  1. 0.05 M
  2. 0.01 M
  3. 0.1 M
  4. 0.02 M

Solution

CaCl2 solution has the two mole of chloride ion. By applying the mole-mole analysis,

The number of molecules of chloride ions = 3.01×10222

Mole of chloride ion = Number of moleculesNA=3.01×10222×6.02×1023=0.025 mol

Molarity of solution = Number of moles of soluteVolume of solution in ml×1000

Number of moles of solute = 0.025 mol

Volume of solution = 500 ml

Molarity of solution = 0.025500×1000=0.05

Hence, the molarity of solution is 0.05 M.
