Question

When [ ] are around an ion, what does it represent? It is an aqueous solution. The concentration of the ion is in moles/liter. The ion is reacting.

Answer 1

Answer: The concentration of the ion is in moles/liter.

Step-by-step explanation: The concentration of any substance is represented bu putting the symbol of that substance inside a square bracket and the concentration represents the molarity of that solution.

Concentration of
`H^+` is written as
`[H^+]`

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of solution.

Formula used :

`Molarity=(n)/(V_s)`

where,

n = moles of solute

`V_s` = volume of solution in L

If a solution is aqueous, it is written by writing (aq) after the chemical formula of the substance.
