Acetone, CH₃COCH₃, is a nonelectrolyte; hypochlorous acid, HClO, is a weak electrolyte; and ammonium chloride, NH₄Cl, is a strong electrolyte. (b) If 0.1 mol of each compound is dissolved in solution, which one contains 0.2 mol of solute particles, which contains 0.1 mol of solute particles, and which contains somewhere between 0.1 and 0.2 mol of solute particles?

Hi everyone here we have a question telling us that a student prepares 30. moller solutions of the following substances sodium chloride in a cl acetic acid, ch three C. 00. H. And glucose, C six H 12 06. And our goal here is to identify which of these solutions will have a exactly 0.15 molar solute particles, be solid particles between 0.15 moller and 0. moller and see exactly 0.30 moller solid particles. So let's start off with sodium chloride. It's going to disassociate completely into sodium and cool ride. So we have 0.15 molar sodium And 0.15 moller chlorine. So we add those up And that equals 0.30. So it's going to have a smaller particles Exactly at 0.30 more. Now let's look at our acetic acid. This is a weak acid. So it is only going to partially disassociate into hydrogen plus C. H three C. 00. And it's only going to partially dissolve. So it will be between 0.15 And 0.30. Next we have glucose and it is a non electrolyte. So it's not going to disassociate at all, making its molar solute particles Exactly 0.15 Molar. So these are our answers. Thank you for watching. Bye
