You have 3.00 L of a 3.67 M solution of NaCl(aq) called solution A. You also have 2.00 L of a 2.00 M solution of AgNO₃(aq) called solution B. You mix these solutions together, making solution C. Calculate the concentration (in M) of Ag⁺ ions in solution C. A) 0 M B) 1.40 M C) 2.20 M D) 0.800 M E) 3.51 M

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When NaCl and AgNO₃ are mixed, Ag⁺ ions react with Cl⁻ ions to form AgCl, a precipitate. Since all Ag⁺ ions react with Cl⁻ ions, the concentration of Ag⁺ ions in the solution is 0 M.
