1.2 M\text{1.2 M}

Step-by-step solution

5 steps
  1. Determine the moles of chloride ions (Cl−\text{Cl}^{-}) from HCl.

    HCl dissociates completely in water:

    HCl(aq)→H+(aq)+Cl−(aq)\text{HCl(aq)} \to \text{H}^{+}(\text{aq}) + \text{Cl}^{-}(\text{aq})

    Given 0.2 mole of HCl, it will produce 0.2 mole of Cl−\text{Cl}^{-} ions.

  2. Determine the moles of chloride ions (Cl−\text{Cl}^{-}) from BaCl2\text{BaCl}_{2}.

    BaCl2\text{BaCl}_{2} dissociates completely in water:

    BaCl2(aq)→Ba2+(aq)+2Cl−(aq)\text{BaCl}_{2}(\text{aq}) \to \text{Ba}^{2+}(\text{aq}) + 2\text{Cl}^{-}(\text{aq})

    Given 0.2 mole of BaCl2\text{BaCl}_{2}, it will produce 2×0.2=0.42 \times 0.2 = 0.4 mole of Cl−\text{Cl}^{-} ions.

  3. Calculate the total moles of chloride ions.

    Total moles of Cl−\text{Cl}^{-} = Moles from HCl + Moles from BaCl2\text{BaCl}_{2}
    Total moles of Cl−\text{Cl}^{-} = 0.2 mol+0.4 mol=0.6 mol0.2 \text{ mol} + 0.4 \text{ mol} = 0.6 \text{ mol}

  4. Convert the volume of the solution to liters.

    Given volume = 500 mL

    500 mL=500×11000 L=0.500 L500 \text{ mL} = 500 \times \frac{1}{1000} \text{ L} = 0.500 \text{ L}
  5. Calculate the molarity of chloride ions.

    Molarity is defined as moles of solute per liter of solution.

    Molarity of Cl−=Total moles of Cl−Volume of solution in liters\text{Molarity of Cl}^{-} = \frac{\text{Total moles of Cl}^{-}}{\text{Volume of solution in liters}} Molarity of Cl−=0.6 mol0.500 L=1.2 M\text{Molarity of Cl}^{-} = \frac{0.6 \text{ mol}}{0.500 \text{ L}} = 1.2 \text{ M}

    The molarity of the Cl−\text{Cl}^{-} ions is 1.2 M. This corresponds to option (c).

    The final answer is 1.2 M\text{1.2 M}.
