In a mixture, the chemical present in the greatest amount is called a solvent, while the other components are called solutes. Then, the molarity or molar concentration is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

In other words, molarity is the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The Molarity of a solution is determined by:

$Molarity (M)=\frac{number of moles of solute}{Volume}$

Molarity is expressed in units ( $\frac{moles}{liter}$ ).

Then you must know the number of moles of Cu(NO₂)₂. For that it is necessary to know the molar mass. Being:

Cu: 63.54 g/mol
N: 14 g/mol
O: 16 g/mol

the molar mass of Cu(NO₂)₂ is:

Cu(NO₂)₂= 63.54 g/mol + 2*(14 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol)= 155.54 g/mol

Now the following rule of three applies: if 155.54 g are in 1 mole of the compound, 225 g in how many moles are they?

$moles=\frac{225 g*1 mole}{155.54 g}$

moles= 1.45

So you know:

number of moles of solute= 1.45 moles
volume=2.59 L

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

$Molarity=\frac{1.45 moles}{2.59 L}$

Molarity= 0.56 $\frac{moles}{L}$

The molarity is 0.56 $\frac{moles}{L}$

Why are alkalis sometimes described as the opposite of acids?

zlopas [31]

Answer: Because Alkalis are bases that can dissolve in water, which can also neutralize acid.
