Question

If 6.63 g of CuNO3 is dissolved in water to make a 0.140 M solution, what is the volume of the solution in milliliters?

Answer 1

Answer:

377mL is the volume of the solution

Explanation:

A 0.140M solution of CuNO₃ contains 0.140 moles of CuNO₃ per liter of solution. Thus, we need to convert first the mass of CuNO₃ to moles using its molar mass and, with the moles available, we can find the volume of the solution, thus:

Moles CuNO₃ -Molar mass: 125.55g/mol:

6.63g * (1mol / 125.55g) = 0.0528 moles of CuNO₃.

Volume of solution:

0.0528 moles of CuNO₃ * (1L / 0.140 moles CuNO₃) = 0.377L

0.377L * (1000mL / 1L) =

377mL is the volume of the solution
