How many grams of MgCl2 would be needed to make 5.3 liters of a 0.25 molar solution? Round your answer to the nearest 0.01,

Respuesta :

Answer: 126.1 grams of are needed to make 5.3 L of 0.25 M solution

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

To calculate the mass of solute for given molarity, we use the equation:

[tex]\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{given mass of solute}}{\text {Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution in L}}[/tex]

[tex]0.25M=\frac{x}{95.2g/mol\times 5.3L}[/tex]

[tex]x=126.1g[/tex]

Thus 126.1 grams of are needed to make 5.3 L of 0.25 M solution
