Question

For a sample of stomach acid that is 2.02×10−2 M in HCl, how many moles of HCl are in 14.6 mL of the stomach acid?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0002949 moles

Explanation:

Concentration = 2.02×10−2 M

Volume = 14.6 mL = 0.0146 L (Upon converting to litres)

Number of moles = ?

These variables are related by the fllowing equation;

Concentration = Number of moles / Volume

Number of moles = Concentration * Volume

Number of moles = 2.02×10−2 * 0.0146 = 0.0002949 moles
