Question

For the following soluble (strong electrolyte) species, represent the process for the solid compound dissolving in water: aluminum nitrate, iron (II) chloride, potassium sulfide, magnesium acetate, ammonium phosphate. Ex :MgBr2(s)  Mg+2(aq) + 2Br-(aq)

Answer 1

Answer:

Al(NO₃)₃ →  Al³⁺ (aq)  +  3NO₃⁻ (aq)

FeCl₂ → Fe²⁺ (aq) +  2Cl⁻ (aq)

K₂S → 2K⁺ (aq) +  S⁻²(aq)

Mg(CH3COO)₂ → Mg²⁺ (aq) + 2CH3COO⁻ (aq)

(NH₄)₃PO₄ → 3NH₄⁺ (aq) + PO₄⁻³(aq)

Explanation:

Al(NO₃)₃ → Aluminum nitrate

FeCl₂ → Iron (II) chloride

K₂S → Potassium sulfide

Mg(CH3COO)₂ → Magnesium acetate

(NH₄)₃PO₄ → Ammonium phosphate
