    KNO₃ → 1 mol of K⁺; 1 mol of nitrate (1 mol of oxygen + 3 mol of nitrogen)

    Na₂SO₄ → 2 mol of Na⁺; 1 mol of sulfate (1 mol of sulfur + 4 mol of oxygen)

    Ca (OH) ₂ → 1 mol of calcium; 2 moles of hydroxide

    (NH₄) ₂SO₃ → 2 mol of ammonium; 2 mol of sulfite (1 mol of sulfur + 3 mol of oxygen)

    Ca₃ (PO₄) ₂ → 3 mol of calcium: 2 mol of phosphate (1 mol of phosphorus + 4 mol of oxygen)

    Al₂ (CrO₄) ₃ → 2 mol of aluminum; 3 mol of cromate (1 mol of Cr + 4 mol of oxygen)

    Explanation:

    Let's verify all the dissociations:

    KNO₃ → K⁺ + NO₃⁻

    Na₂SO₄ → 2Na⁺ + SO₄⁻²

    Ca (OH) ₂ → Ca²⁺ + 2OH⁻

    (NH₄) ₂SO₃ → 2NH₄⁺ + 2SO₃⁻²

    Ca₃ (PO₄) ₂ → 3Ca²⁺ + 2PO₄⁻³

    Al₂ (CrO₄) ₃ → 2Al³⁺ + 3CrO₄⁻²
