Identify the chemical formula of the compound: Na_2Cr_2O_7.
Recognize that Na_2Cr_2O_7 is an ionic compound composed of sodium ions (Na^+) and dichromate ions (Cr_2O_7^{2-}).
When Na_2Cr_2O_7 dissolves in water, it dissociates into its constituent ions.
Write the dissociation equation: Na_2Cr_2O_7 (s) → 2 Na^+ (aq) + Cr_2O_7^{2-} (aq).
Conclude that the ions present in the solution are Na^+ and Cr_2O_7^{2-}.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Dissociation of Ionic Compounds

When ionic compounds like Na2Cr2O7 dissolve in water, they dissociate into their constituent ions. This process involves the separation of the positive and negative ions due to the interaction with water molecules, which stabilizes the ions in solution.

Role of Water as a Solvent

Water is often referred to as a 'universal solvent' due to its ability to dissolve many ionic and polar substances. The polar nature of water molecules allows them to surround and solvate ions, facilitating their movement and interaction in solution, which is essential for various chemical processes.

Domanda del libro di testo

We have learned in this chapter that many ionic solids dissolve in water as strong electrolytes; that is, as separated ions in solution. Which statement is most correct about this process? (a) Water is a strong acid and therefore is good at dissolving ionic solids. (b) Water is good at solvating ions because the hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water molecules bear partial charges. (c) The hydrogen and oxygen bonds of water are easily broken by ionic solids.
