Calculate the ionic strength of a solution made by mixing 100.0 mL of 0.0200 M strontium nitrate solution, 100.0 mL of 0.0300 M potassium nitrate, and 0.625 grams of sodium thiosulfate (if you don’t know what the thiosulfate ion is, look it up). Assume complete dissociation and complete solubility of all species. Think carefully about the concentrations. Drawing a picture will help!
