JonathanEyoon, Dear
Reader;
(
JonathanEyoon: Sorry that you ran already the second time ‘against’ a wall!)
If you feel lost, even with such simple Problems, start with the “Stoichiometry Recipe”:
A.) Reaction: Na
2S (s) ---> Na
+ (aq) + S
2- (aq)
B.) Balancing:
1 Na
2S (s) --->
2 Na
+ (aq) +
1 S
2- (aq)
C1.) MW’s: 78.1 g/m 27.0 g/m 32.1 g/m
For this problem even the line:
C1.) is not really required.
So let’s do the dilution first:
You should remember that 1.0 molar means 1.0 moles per 1.0 Liter Solution, and you have to take only 0.040 Liter, so: 0.474 moles L
-1 * 0.040 L = 0.01896 moles Na
2S.
But this amount is now put into a total volume of 0.300 L final solution, so that it results in a concentration of: 0.01896 moles / 0.300 L = 0.0632 molar Na
2S.
Finally from line
B.) and/or from the Statement in your
Reply #13 you know that you get
2 Na
+ (aq) for each Na
2S, so you should get:
2 * 0.0632 molar =
0.1264 molar Na+.
For the whole “Stoichiometry Recipe” (incl. Excesses) and future explanations you may visit again: "
Stoichiometry Problem”.
I hope it may be of help to you all.
Good Luck!
