what concentration of cl- results when 745 ml of 0.515 M LiCl is mixed with 679 mL 0f 0.443 M MgCl2
no of moles of LiCl = molarity * volume in ml
= 0.515*745 = 383.675mmoles
LiCl--------> Li^+ + Cl^-
383.675mmoles 383.675mmoles
no of mmoles = 383.675mmoles of Cl^-
no of moles of MgCl2 = molarity * volume in ml
= 0.443*679 = 300.787mmoles
MgCl2 ------------------> Mg^+2 + 2Cl^-
300.787mmoles 2*300.787mmoles
mmoles = 601.574mmoles of Cl^-1
resultant conc of Cl^- = 383.675 +601.574/745+679 = 985.249/1424 = 0.69 M of Cl^-
