Question

Write the equation for the dissolution of magnesium chlorate in water. How many moles of ions are produced for every 1 mol of magnesium chlorate dissolved. H2O Mg(ClO3 ) 2 (s) ⟶

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Mg(ClO₃ )₂ (s) ⇄ Mg⁺² + 2ClO₃⁻

1 mole 1 mole 2 mole

Mole of magnesium ion produced = 1 mole .

Mole of chlorate ion produced = 2 mole .

Total moles of ion produced = 2 + 1 = 3 moles .
