Question

What volume of a 2.25 M sodium chloride solution will contain 4.58 moles of sodium chloride

Answer 1

Answer:

Option E. 2.04 L

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Molarity of NaCl = 2.25 M

Mole of NaCl = 4.58 moles

Volume =..?

Molarity is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solution. It is represented mathematically as:

Molarity = mole /Volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the volume of the solution as follow:

Molarity = mole /Volume

2.25 = 4.58/volume

Cross multiply

2.25 x volume = 4.58

Divide both side by 2.25

Volume = 4.58/2.25

Volume = 2.04 L

Therefore, the volume of the solution is 2.04 L
