    Write formulas of ions present in aqueous solutions of following electrolytes.
    Write the formulas of the ions(including charges) present in aqueous solutions of the following electrolytes. Make sure it is both mass and charge balanced.

    a. K2CO3

    b. NH4NO3

    c. Na2Cr2O7

    d. Mg(C2H3O2)2

    I really don't know how to do this.
    These are my prelab assignment
    So, I don't know...
    Please show me how to do this. Thanks

    Well, just give the ions present in the compounds you have.

    For example, if you had NaCl, the ions would be

    Post your answers!

    a.K2CO3
    K+ and CO2-/3
    b.NH4NO3
    NH4+ and NO-/3
    c.Na2Cr2O7
    Na+ and Cr+6 and O-2

    Correct
    Correct
    Nope.

    Na2Cr2O7 is sodium dichromate (VI). The ion is

    Do not worry, you may not have come across this very often. There are quite a few like this one.
    is the manganate ion.
    is the chromate (VI) ion.

    Just like sulfate, nitrate. Nitrite is sulfite is .

    But sulfide is and nitride is

    write the formulas of the ions(uncluding charges)present in aqueous solutions of the following electrolytes. Make sure it is both mass and charge balanced.

    So,

    a) K2CO3-->(2K+)+(CO^-2/3)

    So, is it correct answer for the question?

    and
    b) NH4NO3-->NH^+/4 + NO^-/3

    c) Na2Cr2O7-->2Na^+ + Cr2O^2-/7

    d) Mg(C2H3O2)2-->Mg^2+ +2C2H3O2^-

    SO is these are answer for the questions?
