A solution is prepared by dissolving 10.8 g ammonium sulfate in enough water to make 100.0 mL of stock solution. A 10.00 mL sample of this stock solution is added to 50.00 mL of water. Calculate the concentration of ammonium ions and of sulfate ions in the final solution.

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using some molarity calculations:

molarity

=

mol solute

L soln

We should convert the given mass of

(NH

4

)

2

SO

4

to moles using its molar mass (calculated to be

132.14

g/mol

):

10.8

This is the quantity present in

100

mL soln

, so let's calculate the molarity of the solution (converting volume to liters):

molarity

=

0.0817

10

mL

of this solution is added to

50

, which makes a

total solution.

We can now use the dilution equation

to find the molality of the new,

solution:

(

)

=

M

=

(

0.817

M

)

(

)

60

mL

=

0.136

M

This means that there are

0.136

moles of

(NH

)

SO

per liter of solution.

Let's recognize that

1

mol (NH

Explanation:

cytokinesis is the splitting of a cell membrane to form 2 identical daughter cells. it's similar to mitosis as both cells have identical copies of dna and cytokinesis is a step in the mitotic cycle.

the answer is 0.8m.
