Answer : The number of grams of solute in 500.0 mL of 0.189 M KOH is, 5.292 grams

Solution : Given,

Volume of solution = 500 ml

Molarity of KOH solution = 0.189 M

Molar mass of KOH = 56 g/mole

Formula used :

Molarity=\frac{\text{Mass of KOH}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of KOH}\times \text{Volume of solution in ml}}

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

0.189M=\frac{\text{Mass of KOH}\times 1000}{(56g/mole)\times (500ml)}

\text{Mass of KOH}=5.292g

Therefore, the number of grams of solute in 500.0 mL of 0.189 M KOH is, 5.292 grams

\boxed{{\text{5}}{\text{.292 g}}} of KOH is present in 500 mL of 0.189 M KOH solution.

Further Explanation:

The concentration is the proportion of substance in the mixture. The most commonly used concentration terms are as follows:

1. Molarity  \left(M\right)

2. Molality  \left(m\right)

3. Mole fraction  \left(X\right)

4. Parts per million  \left({{\text{ppm}}}\right)

5. Mass percent  \left({\left({{\text{w/w}}}\right)\%}\right)

6. Volume percent  \left({\left({{\text{v/v}}}\right)\%}\right)

Molarity is a concentration term that is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved in one litre of the solution. It is denoted by M and its unit is mol/L.

The formula to calculate the molarity of KOH is as follows:

{\text{Molarity of KOH solution}}=\frac{{{\text{amount}}\;\left({{\text{mol}}}\right)\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{KOH}}}}{{\;{\text{volume }}\left({\text{L}}\right)\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{solution}}}}                         ......(1)

Rearrange equation (1) to calculate the amount of KOH.

{\text{Amount}}\;\left({{\text{mol}}}\right)\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{KOH}}=\left( {{\text{Molarity of KOH solution}}}\right)\left({\;{\text{Volume }}\left({\text{L}}\right)\;{\text{of KOH }}{\text{solution}}}\right)    ......(2)

The molarity of the KOH solution is 0.189 M or 0.189 mol/L.

The volume of KOH solution is 500 mL.

Substitute these values in equation (2)

\begin{aligned}{\text{Amount}}\;\left({{\text{mol}}}\right)\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{KOH}}&=\left({{\text{0}}{\text{.189 mol/L}}}\right)\left({500\;{\text{mL}}}\right)\left({\frac{{1\;{\text{L}}}}{{{{10}^{ - 3}}{\text{mL}}}}}\right)\\&=0.0945\;{\text{mol}}\\\end{aligned}

The formula to calculate the mass of KOH is,

{\text{Mass of KOH}}=\left({{\text{Amount of KOH}}}\right)\left({{\text{Molar mass of KOH}}}\right)     ......(3)

The amount of KOH is 0.0945 mol.

The molar mass of KOH is 56 g/mol.

Substitute these values in equation (3)

\begin{aligned}{\text{Mass of KOH}}&=\left({{\text{0}}{\text{.0945 mol}}}\right)\left({\frac{{56\;{\text{g}}}}{{1\;{\text{mol}}}}}\right)\\&=5.292\;{\text{g}}\\\end{aligned}

So the mass of KOH is 5.292 g.

Burka [1]

Answer:

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-10 M

Explanation:

The acidity of a solution can be determined directly from the concentration of the hydrogen ions and indirectly from the concentrations of the hydroxide ions.

Generally, for a neutral solution we have;

[H3O+] = [OH-] = 1.0 x 10-7 M

For an acidic solution;

[H3O+] > 1.0 x 10-7 M

[OH-] < 1.0 x 10-7 M

Comparing the options the correct option is;

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-10 M
