Suppose 0.795 g of sodium iodide is dissolved in 100. ml of a 39.0 m m aqueous solution of silver nitrate.
calculate the final molarity of iodide anion in the solution.
you can assume the volume of the solution doesn't change when the sodium iodide is dissolved in it. round your answer to 3 significant digits.

The final molarity of iodide anion is 0.053 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of sodium iodide (NaI) = 0.795 grams

Volume of the solution = 100 mL = 0.1 L

Molarity of aqueous solution of silver nitrate (AgNO3) = 39 mM = 0.039M

The molecular mass of sodium iodide is 149.89 g/mol.

Step 2: The balanced equation

AgNO3(aq) + NaI(aq) → AgI(s) + NaNO3(aq)

Step 3: Calculate number of moles of sodium iodide

Moles NaI = mass NaI / Molar mass NaI

Moles NaI = 0.795 grams / 149.89 g/mol

Moles NaI = 0.0053 moles

For 1 mole AgNO3 consumed, we need 1 mole NaI to produce 1 mole AgI and 1 mole NaNO3

The sodium iodide will dissociate as followed:

NaI(aq) → Na+(aq) +  I-(aq)

Step 4: Calculate iodide ions

For 1 mole NaI, we have 1 mole of I-

For 0.0053 moles of NaI we'll have 0.0053 moles I-

Step 5: Calculate molarity of iodide ion

Molarity = moles I- / volume

Molarity I- = 0.0053 moles / 0.1 L

Molarity I- = 0.053 M

The final molarity of iodide anion is 0.053 M
