Answer:

There are approximately 0.271\; \rm mol of formula units in that \rm 15.2\; g of \rm KOH (the solute of this solution.)

Explanation:

A solution includes two substances: the solute and the solvent. Note the solution here contains significantly more water than \rm KOH. Hence, assume that water is the solvent (as it is in many other solutions.)

The (molar) formula mass of \rm KOH is necessary for finding the number of moles of

  • One \rm K atom,
  • One \rm O atom, and
  • One \rm  H atom.

The formula mass of \rm KOH will thus be the sum of:

  • The mass of one mole of \rm K atoms,
  • The mass of one mole of \rm O atoms, and
  • The mass of one mole of \rm H atoms.

On the other hand, the mass (in grams) of one mole of atoms of an element is (numerically) the same as its relative atomic mass. The relative atomic mass data can be found on most modern periodic tables.

Relative atomic mass data from a modern periodic table:

  • \rm K: 39.098.
  • \rm O: 15.999.
  • \rm H: 1.008.

For example, the relative atomic mass of \rm K (potassium, atomic number 19) is 39.098 (3 sig. fig.) Hence, the mass of one mole of

The formula mass of \rm KOH is the sum of these three masses:

\begin{aligned}& M(\mathrm{KOH}) \\ &\approx 39.098 + 15.999 + 1.008 \\ &= 56.105\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

The number of moles of \rm KOH formula units in this 15.2\; \rm g sample would be:

\begin{aligned}n &= \frac{m(\mathrm{KOH})}{M(\mathrm{KOH})} \\ &\approx \frac{15.2\; \rm g}{56.105\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 0.271\; \rm mol \end{aligned}.

Which solution has a molality of 0.25m nacl?
Solnce55 [7]

Molality can be expressed by moles of solute over kilograms of solvent. The question asks the molality of 0.25m NaCl. 0.25m NaCl is equal to 0.25 moles of NaCl over 1 kg of water.
