Short Answer

Expert verified
(a) 5.21 g of KBr (b) 0.0654 M Ca(NO\(_3\))\(_2\) (c) 10.2 mL of 1.50 M Na\(_3\)PO\(_4\)

Step by step solution

01

Calculate moles of solute in KBr solution

To determine the moles of solute in the KBr solution, use the formula: moles of solute = molarity × volume moles of \(KBr = 0.175\,M × 0.250\,L = 0.04375\,mol\)
02

Calculate grams of solute in KBr solution

Now, we'll convert the moles of solute to grams using the molar mass of KBr. Molar mass of KBr = 39.1 g/mol (for K) + 79.9 g/mol (for Br) = 119 g/mol Grams of KBr = moles × molar mass = \(0.04375\,mol × 119\,g/mol = 5.21\,g\) So, there are 5.21 grams of KBr solute.
03

Calculate moles of solute in Ca(NO\(_3\))\(_2\) solution

First, find the moles of solute using the mass and molar mass of Ca(NO\(_3\))\(_2\). Molar mass of Ca(NO\(_3\))\(_2\) = 40.08 g/mol (for Ca) + 2 × (14.01 g/mol (for N) + 3 × 16.00 g/mol (for O)) = 164.10 g/mol Moles of Ca(NO\(_3\))\(_2\) = mass / molar mass = \(14.75\,g / 164.10\,g/mol = 0.0899\,mol\)
04

Calculate the molar concentration of the Ca(NO\(_3\))\(_2\) solution

Now, we'll calculate the molar concentration using the formula: molarity = moles of solute / volume Molarity of Ca(NO\(_3\))\(_2\) = \(0.0899\,mol / 1.375\,L = 0.0654\,M\) So, the molar concentration of the Ca(NO\(_3\))\(_2\) solution is 0.0654 M.
05

Calculate moles of solute in Na\(_3\)PO\(_4\) solution

First, find the moles of solute using the mass and molar mass of Na\(_3\)PO\(_4\). Molar mass of Na\(_3\)PO\(_4\) = 3 × 22.99 g/mol (for Na) + 30.97 g/mol (for P) + 4 × 16.00 g/mol (for O) = 163.94 g/mol Moles of Na\(_3\)PO\(_4\) = mass / molar mass = \(2.50\,g / 163.94\,g/mol = 0.0153\,mol\)
06

Calculate the volume of Na\(_3\)PO\(_4\) solution

Now, find the volume in liters using the formula: volume = moles of solute / molarity Volume of Na\(_3\)PO\(_4\) = \(0.0153\,mol / 1.50\,M = 0.0102\,L\)
07

Convert the volume to milliliters

Finally, convert the volume from liters to milliliters. Volume of Na\(_3\)PO\(_4\) = \(0.0102\,L × 1000\,mL/L = 10.2\,mL\) So, the volume of 1.50 M Na\(_3\)PO\(_4\) in milliliters that contains 2.50 g of solute is 10.2 mL.
