Respuesta :
The molarity is count by dividing the mole of the solute within 1 liter of solvent. In this case, the KNO3 is 16.8g with 101.11 g/mol molar mass. Then we need to find the mol first. The calculation would be: 16.8g / (101.11g/mol)= 0.0166 mol.
Then the molarity would be: 0.0166mol/ 0.3l= 0.0498= 0.0553 M
Then the molarity would be: 0.0166mol/ 0.3l= 0.0498= 0.0553 M
Answer : The molarity of a solution is 0.554 M.
Explanation : Given,
Mass of [tex]KNO_3[/tex] = 16.8 g
Volume of solution = 300.0 mL
Molar mass of [tex]KNO_3[/tex] = 101.11 g/mole
Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of volume of solution.
Formula used :
[tex]\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Mass of }KNO_3\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of }KNO_3\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}[/tex]
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:
[tex]\text{Molarity}=\frac{16.8g\times 1000}{101.11g/mole\times 300.0mL}=0.554mole/L=0.554M[/tex]
Therefore, the molarity of a solution is 0.554 M.
