Answer : The laboratory technician need to measure before making the solution is the mass of the solute.

Explanation :

Given : Molarity of NaOH = 2 M = 2 mole/L

Volume of solution = 500 ml

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mole

For making the solution, we need the mass of NaOH.

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in on liter of solution.

Formula used : M=\frac{w_1\times 1000}{M_1\times V_s}

where,

M = molarity of the NaOH

w_1 = mass of NaOH

M_1 = molar mass of NaOH

V_s = volume of solution

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the mass of NaOH.

2mole/L=\frac{w_1\times 1000}{(40g/mole)\times (500)L}

w_1=40g

Therefore, the mass of NaOH is 40 gram.

As we know the molarity of solute, volume of solution and molar mass of the solute. Hence, the laboratory technician will need to measure only mass of the solute before making the solution.

If 72.5 grams of calcium metal (Ca) react with 65.0 grams of oxygen gas (O2) in a synthesis reaction, how many grams of the exce
Natali5045456 [20]
2Ca + O2 = 2CaO
First, determine which is the excess reactant
72.5 g Ca (1 mol) =1.8089725036
(40.078 g)

65 g O2 (1 mol) =2.0313769611
(15.999g × 2)
Since the ratio of to O2 is 2:1 in the balanced reaction, divide Ca's molar mass by 2 to get 0.9044862518. this isn't necessary because Ca is already obviously the limiting reactant. therefore, O2 is the excess reactant.

Now do the stoichiometry
72.5 g Ca (1 mol Ca) (1 mol O2)
(40.078 g Ca)(2 mol Ca)(31.998g O2)

=0.0282669621 g of O2 left over
