This is because some Richer scales are programed or made differently in the factory therefore effecting ones ability to scale an Earth Quake

The Richter scale tells the amount of force that is needed to create the waves and that is used in the moment magnitude scale.
It's kind of like measuring the weight of an object to find the density, it isn't all the information you need.

What is the mass of solute in a 500 mL solution of 0.200 M
Fofino [41]

16.4 grams is the mass of solute in a 500 mL solution of 0.200 M .

sodium phosphate

Explanation:

Given data about sodium phosphate

atomic mass of Na3PO4 = 164 grams/mole

volume of the solution = 500 ml or 0.5 litres

molarity of sodium phosphate solution = 0.200 M

The formula for molarity will be used here to know the mass dissolved in the given volume of the solution:

The formula is

molarity = \frac{number of moles of solute}{volume in litres}

    putting the values in the equation, we get

molarity x volume = number of moles

0.200 X 0.5= number of  moles

number of moles = 0.1 moles

Atomic mass x number of moles = mass

putting the values in the above equation

164 x 0.1 = 16.4 grams

16.4 grams of sodium phosphate is present in 0.5 L of the solution to make a 0.2 M solution.
