Problem 2: Following analysis passes the acceptability of
analysis (satisfies the electroneutrality). Find the concentration
of Ca2+ mg/L.
Na+ = 12.8 mg/L Cl-= 10.4 mg/L
Ca2+ = ??? HCO3- = 195.2
mg/L
Mg2+ = 15.5 mg/L SO4 2- = 33.1
mg/L
K+ = 7.8 mg/L
For this first we have to know the moles or mmoles of each ions, so, we have to know their molar mass:
Species | Molar mass(g.mol-1) |
Na+ | 23 |
Cl- | 35.5 |
Ca2+ | 40 |
HCO3- | 61 |
Mg2+ | 24.3 |
SO42- | 96 |
K+ | 39.1 |
NOTE: Molar mass of atoms and corresponding ions are same, because mass of electron does not contribute significantly.
So, now I make a table for calculating mmoles of ions:
Species | Mass(mg) | mmoles (mg / molar mass) |
Na+ | 12.8 | 0.556 |
Cl- | 10.4 | 0.293 |
Ca2+ | x (say) | x / 40 |
HCO3- | 195.2 | 3.2 |
Mg2+ | 15.5 | 0.638 |
SO42- | 33.1 | 0.345 |
K+ | 7.80 | 0.199 |
Since the condition of electroneutrality is,
total positive charge = total negative charge
So, concentration of Ca2+ is 43.04 mg.L-1.
