Question

A chemist prepares a solution of silver(I) perchlorate by measuring out of silver(I) perchlorate into a volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in of the chemist's silver(I) perchlorate solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer 1

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A chemist prepares a solution of silver (I) perchlorate (AgCIO4) by measuring out 134.g of silver (I) perchlorate into a 50.ml volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. calculate the concentration in mol/L of the silver (I) perchlorate solution. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

13 mol/L

Explanation:

We must first obtain the number of moles of silver I perchlorate involved

Molar mass of silver I perchlorate = 207.32 g/mol

Number of moles of silver I perchlorate = 134g/207.32 g/mol = 0.646 moles

Recall that;

n =CV

C= concentration

V= volume

n = number of moles

C = n/V

C = 0.646 moles * 1000/50

C = 13 mol/L
