Question

25.3 g25.3\text{ g} of Sodium carbonate Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 is dissolved in enough water to make 250 mL250\text{ mL} of solution. If sodium carbonate dissociates completely, molar concentration of sodium ion, Na+\text{Na}^+ and carbonate ion CO32\text{CO}_3^{2-} are respectively (Molar mass of Na2CO3=106 g mol1\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = 106\text{ g mol}^{-1})

A

0.955 M0.955\text{ M} and 1.910 M1.910\text{ M}

B

1.910 M1.910\text{ M} and 0.955 M0.955\text{ M}

C

1.90 M1.90\text{ M} and 1.910 M1.910\text{ M}

D

0.477 M0.477\text{ M} and 0.477 M0.477\text{ M}

Step-by-Step Solution

Moles of Na2CO3=MassMolar mass=25.3 g106 g mol1=0.2387 mol\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} = \frac{25.3\text{ g}}{106\text{ g mol}^{-1}} = 0.2387\text{ mol}. Volume of solution =250 mL=0.250 L= 250\text{ mL} = 0.250\text{ L}. Molarity of Na2CO3=0.2387 mol0.250 L=0.9548 M0.955 M\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = \frac{0.2387\text{ mol}}{0.250\text{ L}} = 0.9548\text{ M} \approx 0.955\text{ M}. The dissociation reaction of sodium carbonate is: Na2CO32Na++CO32\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 \rightarrow 2\text{Na}^+ + \text{CO}_3^{2-} Since 1 mole1\text{ mole} of Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 gives 2 moles2\text{ moles} of Na+\text{Na}^+ and 1 mole1\text{ mole} of CO32\text{CO}_3^{2-} , Concentration of Na+=2×0.955 M=1.910 M\text{Na}^+ = 2 \times 0.955\text{ M} = 1.910\text{ M}. Concentration of CO32=1×0.955 M=0.955 M\text{CO}_3^{2-} = 1 \times 0.955\text{ M} = 0.955\text{ M}.
