Question

What is the volume of an 2.3 solution with 212 grams of calcium chloride dissolved in it

Answer 1

830 mL. A 2.3 mol/L solution of CaCl2 has a volume of 830 mL

I am guessing that the concentration of your solution is 2.3 mol/L.

a) Moles of CaCl2

MM of CaCl2 = 110.98 g/mol

Moles of CaCl2 = 212 g CaCl2 x (1 mol CaCl2/110.98 g CaCl2)

= 1.910 mol CaCl2

b) Volume of solution

V = 1.910 mol CaCl2 x (1 L solution/2.3 mol CaCl2) = 0.83 L solution

= 830 mL solution
