Question

How many grams of NH4OH are present in 37.0 grams of 6.00 M NH4OH which has a density of 0.960 g/mL?

Answer 1

Answer:

The mass of NH₄OH  present in the solution is 8.085 g

Explanation:

Given;

molarity of NH₄OH = 6 M

density of NH₄OH = 0.960 g/mL

mass of NH₄OH  = 37.0 grams

volume of  NH₄OH = mass /density

                                = 37/0.96

                                = 38.54 mL

molarity = moles of solute / Liters of solution

moles of solute  = molarity  x Liters of solution

moles of solute  = 6 x  38.54 x 10⁻³

moles of solute  = 0.231 moles

Reacting mass = number of moles x molecular mass

Molecular mass of NH₄OH = 35 g/mol

Reacting mass = 0.231 mol x 35 g/mol

Reacting mass = 8.085 g

Therefore, the mass of NH₄OH  present in the solution is 8.085 g
