Answer:
0.266 moles of Na⁺
Explanation:
First step we dissociate the salt:
Na₃AsO₄ → 3Na⁺ + AsO₄⁻³
From 1 mol of sodium arsenate, we must have 3 moles of sodium cation and 1 mol of arsenate.
We determine the moles of salt:
18.4 g . 1 mol/ 207.89 g = 0.0885 moles of salt.
We apply the followring rule of three:
1 mol of salt has 3 moles of Na⁺
0.0885 moles of salt may have (0.0885 . 3) / 1 = 0.266 moles of Na⁺
