Question

How many moles of KNO3 are in 500 mL of 2. 0 M KNO3? mol KNO3.

Answer 1

The moles can be defined as the mass of the substance with respect to molar mass. The moles of potassium nitrate is 1 mol.

How to calculate moles of a substance?

The moles of a compound can be calculated from:

$\rm Moles=\dfrac{Mass}{Molar\;mass}$

The molarity can be defined as the moles of solute in a liter of solution.

The molarity can be expressed as:

$\rm Molarity=\dfrac{Moles\;\times\;1000}{Volume\;(mL)}$

The molarity of potassium nitrate solution is 2 M, and the volume is 500 mL.

The moles of potassium nitrate is given as:

$\rm 2\;M=\dfrac{Moles\;\times\;1000}{500\;mL}\\ Moles=\dfrac{2\;\times\;500}{1000}\;mol\\ Moles=1\;mol$

The moles of potassium nitrate in 2 M, 500 mL solution are 1 mol.
