In the laboratory a student combines 28.7 ml of a 0.240 m barium chloride solution with 17.5 ml of a 0.331 m chromium(ii) chloride solution. what is the final concentration of chloride anion ?

0.549 M

Explanation:

Considering:

Barium chloride will furnish chloride ions as:

Given :

For barium chloride :

Molarity = 0.240 M

Volume = 28.7 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 28.7×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of chlorine furnished by barium chloride is twice the moles of barium chloride as shown below:

Moles of chloride ions by barium chloride = 0.013776 moles

Chromium(II) chloride will furnish chloride ions as:

Given :

For chromium(II) chloride :

Molarity = 0.331 M

Volume = 17.5 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 17.5×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of chlorine furnished by chromium(II) chloride is twice the moles of chromium(II) chloride as shown below:

Moles of chloride ions by chromium(II) chloride = 0.011585 moles

Total moles = 0.013776 moles + 0.011585 moles = 0.025361 moles

Total volume = 28.7×10⁻³ L + 17.5×10⁻³ L = 46.2×10⁻³ L

Concentration of chloride ions is:

The final concentration of chloride anion = 0.549 M

the old alchemists made significant contributions to science even though there starting premises were off a bit. their conclusions after failure would steer them into better directions for investigation. science is no more than close observation and the initial mistakes result in rethinking and retrying experiments.
