Answer:
46.839728 grams of water
Explanation:
1 mole is equal to 1 moles H2O, or 18.01528 grams
18.01528 times 2.6 = 46.839728
There are 46.839728 grams h20 in 2.60 mol of the compound
The concentration in mol L-l (M) = 0.717
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
12% solution of tetrahydrate magnesium chloride (MgCl₂)
Required
The concentration
Solution
Tetrahydrate magnesium chloride (MgCl₂)⇒MgCl₂.4H₂O
MW = Ar Mg+2. Ar Cl+8. Ar H + 4. Ar O
MW=24.31 + 2 x 35.45 + 8 x 1.01 + 4 x 16
MW=24.31+70.9+8.08+64
MW=167.29 g/mol
12% solution = 12 % m/v = 12 g in 100 ml solution
For 1 L solution :

The concentration in g/L = 120 g/L
Convert grams to moles :

C is the correct answer I think have a good day
In this problem you would need to determine the mass of each
element first. The mass of phosphorus is given which is 31 grams. The mass of
oxygen is the difference between 71 grams and 31 since we know that the compound
formed weighs 71 grams. Then determine the moles of each element. You would get
1.0009 moles for phosphorus and 2.5 moles for oxygen. You have to then multiply
the moles to the lowest number that would give a whole number for each element.
The empirical formula of the oxide is P2O5.
