The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:
A chemist adds 0.85 L of a 0.0050M calcium sulfate to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of calcium sulfate the chemist has added to the flask. Round your answer to significant digits.
Answer: The mass in grams of calcium sulfate the chemist has added to the flask is 0.58 g
Explanation:
Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.
[tex]Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}[/tex]
where,
n = moles of solute
[tex]V_s[/tex] = volume of solution in L
moles of [tex]CaSO_4[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{xg}{136g/mol}[/tex]
Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get
[tex]0.0050=\frac{x}{136\times 0.85}[/tex]
[tex]x=0.58 g[/tex]
Therefore, the mass in grams of calcium sulfate the chemist has added to the flask is 0.58 g
