Calculate the number of equivalents in each of the following:

a.1mole ofK+

b.2molesofOH-

c.1mole ofCa2+

d.3molesofCO32-

Short Answer

Expert verified

(part a) The number of equivalents in1mole ofK+=1eq

(part b) The number of equivalent in2molesofOH-=2eq

(part c) The number of equivalent in1mole ofCa2+=2eq

(part d) The number of equivalent in3molesofCO32-=6eq

Step by step solution

01

Introduction (part a).

The number of equivalents seems to be the amount of electrons or ions which can be transmitted in a chemical reaction.

02

Given Information (part a). 

1mole ofK+

03

Explanation (part a).

Every mole has one equivalent for an ion with a charge of +.

Hence, 1mole ofK+=1eq

04

Given Information (part b). 

2molesofOH-

05

Explanation (part b).

Each mole has one equivalent for just an ion with a charge of -.

Hence, 2molesofOH-=2eq

06

Given Information (part c).

1mole ofCa2+

07

Explanation (part c).

Each mole has two equivalents for something like an ion with a charge of2+.

Therefore, 1mole ofCa2+=2eq

08

Given Information (part d).

3molesofCO32-

09

Explanation (part d).

Each mole has two equivalents for such an atom with a charge of2-.

Hence, 3molesofCO32-=6eq
