Calculate Molarity from a given Ionic strength?
« on: October 04, 2009, 04:18:31 PM »
I'm having trouble understanding the relationship between molarity and ionic strength.

What is the molarity of a Mg(NO3)2 solution that has an ionic strength of 0.060?

Isn't it just Molarity = .060 because i'm given the ionic strength of the entire molecule?

No. You can calculate molarity 'reversing' ionic strength definition.

Numerically ionic strength equals molarity for 1:1 substances dissociating into single charged ions - like NaCl, HCl, KOH and so on.
