Much of biological studies are actually chemistry because of chemical changes that occur within organisms. Similarly, large parts of chemistry are governed by physics.
Molarity refers to moles/ L. This indicates the concentration of a solution containing solute and solvent.
1 molar solution contains 1 mole of solute in 1 L of solvent.
According to Avogadro's number, 1 mole of a substance contains 6.023 x 10^23 molecules, atoms, or ions.
For this reason, 6.023 x 10^23 atoms, ions, or molecules are in a molar solution.
Answer:
5
Explanation:
Firstly, we convert what we have to percentage compositions.
There are two parts in the molecule, the sulphate part and the water part.
The percentage compositions is as follows:
Sulphate- (103.74)/(103.74 + 58.55) × 100% = apprx 64%
The water part = 100 - 64 = 36%
Now, we divide the percentages by the molar masses.
For the CuSO4 molar mass is 64 + 32 + 4(16) = 160g/mol
For the H2O = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mol
Now we divide the percentages by these masses
Sulphate = 64/160 = 0.4
Water = 36/18 = 2
The ratio is thus 0.4:2 = 1:5
Hence, there are 5 water molecules.
Is this a question? if so please elaborate.
