How many moles of ions are released when 1.6 mol of ammonium phosphate, (nh4)3po4, is dissolved in water?

6.4 moles of ions

Explanation:

When ammonium phosphate, , is dissolved in water , it dissociates into ions.

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

1 mole of gives 3 moles of and 1 mole of

1.6 moles of gives moles of NH_4^+[/tex] and moles of

Thus (1.6 + 4.8) = 6.4 moles of ions are released when 1.6 mol of ammonium phosphate, is dissolved in water.
