a. 2×NH+4, 0.50molL1; SO24, 0.25molL1

Explanation:

b. H3O+, 0.056molL1; NO3, 0.056molL1

c. Na+, 0.246molL1; CO23, 0.123molL1

d. K+, 1.24×103molL1; ClO4, 1.24×103molL1

While SOME hydrolysis could occur for the carbonate ion,

CO23+H2O(l)HCO3+HO we were not given the data to assess the concentration. What data do you need?
