Unit of M is also mole/L, where mole is the moles of solute and L is the volume of the solution. The latter is given: 158 mL or 0.158 L. So we need to find out the moles of NH4Br.
Moles of NH4Br = Mass of NH4Br/molar mass of NH4Br = 17.0g/(14+1*4+79.9)g/mol = 0.1736 mole.
So, the molarity of the solution = 0.1736mole/0.158L = 1.10 mole/L = 1.10 M
Answer:
When melted or dissolved in water.
Explanation:
Potassium bromide in its solid form contains ions, which are charged atoms. Through the heating process, the melted potassium bromide becomes an ionic liquid. If solid potassium bromide is dissolved, for example in water, the resulting release of ions allows it to conduct electricity.
