Chapter 13, Problem 13.151P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molarities of ${\text{NH}}_4^{+}$ and ${\text{PO}}_4^{3-}$ are to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in one litre of solution. It is represented by $M$ and its unit is $\text{mol/L}$.

The formula to calculate the molarity of the solution is as follows:

$\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{amount}\left(\text{mol}\right)\text{of}\text{solute}}{\text{volume }\left(\text{L}\right)\text{of}\text{}\text{solution}}$ (1)
