Answer:
The answer to your question is: 0.02
Explanation:
Data
Mass = 5.3 g of CaCl₂
Volume = 2.5 l
Molarity = ?
Formula
Molarity = [tex]\frac{moles}{volume}[/tex]
Process
1.- Calculate the molecular mass of CaCl₂
Molecular mass = mass of Calcium + mass of chlorine
Molecular mass = 40 + 2(35.5)
= 40 + 71
= 111 g
2.- Calculate the mles of CaCl₂
111 g of CaCl₂ ------------------ 1 mol
5.3 g ------------------- x
x = (5.3 x 1) / 111
x = 0.048 moles
3.- Calculate molarity
Molarity = 0.048 / 2.5
Molarity = 0.02
