For all three questions, we will use the fact that
- molarity = (moles of solute)/(liters of solution)
1) For 175 mL of solution at 0.203 M, this means that:
- 0.203 = (moles of solute)/0.175
- moles of solute = 0.035523 mol
Considering the hydrochloric acid solution, if we have 0.035523 mol, then:
- 6.00 = 0.035523/(liters of solution)
- liters of solution = 0.035523/6.00 = 0.0059205 = <u>5.92 mL (to 3 sf)</u>
<u />
2) If there is 20.3 mL = 0.0203 L, then:
- 8.20 = (moles of solute)/0.0203
- moles of solute = 0.16646 mol
This means that the molarity of the diluted solution is:
- 0.16646/(0.200) = <u>0.832 M (to 3 sf)</u>
<u />
3) If we need 1.50 L of 0.700 M solution, then:
- 0.700 = (moles of solute)/1.50
- moles of solute = 1.05 mol
Considering the 9.36 M acid solution, from which we need 1.05 mol of perchloric acid from,
- 9.36 = 1.05/(liters of solution)
- liters of solution = 1.05/9.36, which is 0.11217948717949 L, or <u>112 mL (to 3 sf)</u>
