The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the given information and apply the necessary formulas. ### Step 1: Understand the Given Information - The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the cationic colloidal electrolyte is \(10^{-3}\) M. - The volume of the solution is \(1 \, \text{mm}^3\) which is equivalent to \(1 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{mL}\). - The number of micelles in this volume is \(10^{13}\). - Avogadro's number \(N_A = 6.0 \times 10^{23} \, \text{mol}^{-1}\). ### Step 2: Calculate the Number of Moles of Cationic Colloids Using the definition of molarity: \[ \text{Molarity (C)} = \frac{\text{moles of solute (n)}}{\text{volume of solution (L)}} \] We can rearrange this to find the number of moles of cationic colloids: \[ n = C \times V \] Where: - \(C = 10^{-3} \, \text{mol/L}\) - \(V = 1 \, \text{mm}^3 = 1 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{mL} = 1 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{L}\) Now substituting the values: \[ n = 10^{-3} \, \text{mol/L} \times 1 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{L} = 10^{-9} \, \text{mol} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Number of Cations in One Micelle Since we have \(10^{13}\) micelles in \(1 \, \text{mm}^3\), we can find the number of moles of cationic colloids per micelle: \[ \text{Moles of cationic colloids per micelle} = \frac{n}{\text{Number of micelles}} = \frac{10^{-9} \, \text{mol}}{10^{13}} = 10^{-22} \, \text{mol} \] ### Step 4: Convert Moles to Number of Cations To find the number of cations in one micelle, we multiply the number of moles of cationic colloids per micelle by Avogadro's number: \[ \text{Number of cations} = \text{Moles} \times N_A = 10^{-22} \, \text{mol} \times 6.0 \times 10^{23} \, \text{mol}^{-1} \] Calculating this gives: \[ \text{Number of cations} = 6.0 \times 10^{1} = 60 \] ### Final Answer The number of cations making one micelle is **60**. ---
