Answer:

<h3>The answer is 3.44 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\$

From the question

mass = 17.2 g

volume = 5 cm³

We have

$density = \frac{17.2}{5} \\$

We have the final answer as

What is the concentration of no3- ions in a solution prepared by dissolving 15.0 g of ca(no3)2 in enough water to produce 300. m

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Ca(NO3)2 -------> Ca²⁺ +2NO3⁻

M(Ca(NO3)2)= M(Ca) + M(N) + 6M(O)= 40.0 +14.0 +6*16.0 = 150 g/mol

15.0 g Ca(NO3)2 * 1mol/150 g = 0. 100 mol Ca(NO3)2

Ca(NO3)2 -------> Ca²⁺ +2NO3⁻
1 mol 2 mol
0.100 mol 0.200 mol

We have 0.2 mol NO3⁻ in 300. mL=0.300 L of solution,
so
0.200 mol NO3⁻ / 0.300 L solution ≈ 0.667 mol NO3⁻ /L solution = 0.667 M

Concentration of NO3⁻ is 0.667 M.
