Use a proportion ... 
<span>100.0g - 38.67g - 13.86g = 47.47g Oxygen </span>
<span>285.0 mg = 0.285g </span>
<span>47.47/100 = x/0.285g </span>
<span>x = ( 47.47/100) X 0.285g </span>

Calculate the molarity of a solution made by dissolving 4.0 g of calcium bromide, CaBr2, in enough water to give 200 mL of solut
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

0.1 M

Explanation:

Molarity = number of moles / litres of solution.

4 g of calcium bromide = 0.02 mol

(found by dividing 4 g by the atomic mass of CaBr2, which is 199.886)

200 mL of solution = 0.2 litres

Molarity = 0.02 mol / 0.2 L = 0.1 M
