Question

How many grams of Na2SO4 should be weighed out to prepare 0.5L of a 0.100M solution?​

Answer 1

Answer:

7 gram of Na2SO4 should be required to prepare 0.5L of a 0.100 M solution.

Explanation:

First of all the molecular weight of Na2SO4 is 142.08 gram.Now we all know that if the molecular weight of a compound is dissolved in 1000ml or 1 litee of water then the strength of that solution becomes 1 M.

    According to the given question we have to prepare 0.100 M solution

1000 ml of solution contain 142.08×0.1= 14.208 gram Na2SO4

1    ml of solution contain     14.208÷1000= 0.014 gram

0.5L or 500ml of solution contain 0.014×500= 7gram Na2SO4.

 So it can be stated that 7 gram of Na2SO4 should be required to prepare 0.5L of a 0.100M solution.
