How would I do this one?

How many total moles of ions are released when 0.32 mol of NH4Cl dissolves in water?

When it dissolves, .32 mol NH4Cl will split into two ions, NH4+ and Cl-. Because the amount of each of the two ions stays the same, there are .32 mol of each one.


.32 mol NH4+ added to .32 mol Cl- gives you .64 mol ions total.

.64 moles!
