Question

You have dissolved 10 g sodium oxide in 200 ml water.calculate concentration of the solution

Answer 1

Answer:

0.85 Molar Na2O

Explanation:

Determine the moles of sodium oxide, Na2O, in 10 grams by dividing by the molar mass of Na2O (61.98 g/mole).

 (10 g Na2O)/(61.98 g/mole) = 0.161 moles Na2O.

Molar is a measure of concentration.  It is defined as moles/liter.  A 1 M  solution contains 1 mole of solute per liter of solvent.  [200 ml water = 0.2 Liters water.]

In this case, we have 0.161 moles Na2O in 0.200 L of solvent.

 (0.161 moles Na2O)/(0.200 L) = 0.85 Molar Na2O
