The empirical formula of a commercial ion-exchange resin is `C_(8) H_(70 SO_(3) Na`. The resin is used to soften water as follows: `Ca^(2+) + 2C_(8)H_(7)SO_(3)Na rarr (C_(8) H_(7) SO_(3))_(2) Ca + Na^(o+)` expressed in `mol//g` resin?

Answer» `(1 mol Ca^(2+))/((2 "mol resin")(206 g "resin"//mol. "reson"))`
`= 0.00246 mol Ca^(2+)//g "resin"`
