What volume (in liters) of a solution contains 0.14 mol of KCl?
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.078 \ L }}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the volume of a solution given the moles of solute and molarity.

Molarity is a measure of concentration in moles per liter. It is calculated using the following formula:

molarity= \frac{moles \ of \ solute}{liters \ of \ solution}

We know there are 0.14 moles of potassium chloride (KCl), which is the solute. The molarity of the solution is 1.8 molar or 1.8 moles of potassium chloride per liter.

  • moles of solute = 0.14 mol KCl
  • molarity= 1.8 mol KCl/ L
  • liters of solution=x

Substitute these values/variables into the formula.

1.8 \ mol \ KCl/ L = \frac { 0.14 \ mol \ KCl}{x}

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. First, cross multiply. Multiply the first numerator and second denominator, then the first denominator and second numerator.

\frac {1.8 \ mol \ KCl/L}{1} = \frac{0.14 \ mol \ KCl}{x}

1.8 \ mol \ KCl/ L *x = 1*0.14 \ mol \ KCl

1.8 \ mol \ KCl/ L *x = 0.14 \ mol \ KCl

Now x is being multiplied by 1.8 moles of potassium chloride per liter. The inverse operation of multiplication is division, so we divide both sides by 1.8 mol KCl/L.

\frac {1.8 \ mol \ KCl/ L *x}{1.8 \ mol \ KCl/L} = \frac{0.14 \ mol \ KCl}{1.8 \ mol \ KCl/L}

x= \frac{0.14 \ mol \ KCl}{1.8 \ mol \ KCl/L}

The units of moles of potassium chloride cancel.

x= \frac{0.14 }{1.8 L}

x=0.07777777778 \ L

The original measurements of moles and molarity have 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the thousandth place. The 7 in the ten-thousandth place tells us to round the 7 up to a 8.

x \approx 0.078 \ L

There are approximately <u>0.078 liters of solution.</u>

What is arranged to form a material with a crystal structure
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

A crystal or crystalline solid is a solid material whose constituents (such as atoms, molecules, or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions. The scientific study of crystals and crystal formation is known as crystallography.
