Custom Search Ion Concentration from Solution Concentration Ionic compounds dissociate in solution, multiplying the molarity by the number of ions present What is the Chloride Concentrations [Cl-] in the following solutions? 2.0M NaCl since NaCl dissolves according to this reaction NaCl => Na+ + Cl- the NaCl to Cl- ratio is 1:1, therefore [Cl-]= 1 x 2.0M =2.0M 1.5M AlCl3 since AlCl3 dissolves according to this reaction AlCl3 = > Al3+ + 3 Cl- the AlCl3 to Cl- ratio is 1:3, therefore [Cl-]= 3 x 1.5M= 4.5M 2.0M CaCl2 since CaCl2 dissolves according to this reaction CaCl2 = > Ca2+ + 2 Cl- the CaCl2 to Cl- ratio is 1:2, therefore [Cl-]= 2 x 2.0M= 4.0M
