Answer:
The molarity is 0.0174 [tex]\frac{moles}{liter}[/tex]
Explanation:
Molarity (M) or Molar Concentration is the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a certain volume.
The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the moles of the solute by the volume of the solution.
[tex]Molarity=\frac{number of moles of solute}{volume of solution}[/tex]
Molarity is expressed in units [tex]\frac{moles}{liter}[/tex].
In this case, being the molar mass of compound Pb(C₂H₃O₂)₄ equal to 443.38 g / mol, then the following rule of three can be applied: if 443.38 grams are contained in 1 mol, 2.7*10⁻² grams in how many moles they are present?
[tex]amount of moles=\frac{2.7*10^{-2} grams*1 mol}{443.38 grams}[/tex]
amount of moles= 6.09*10⁻⁵ moles
Being 1,000 mL= 1 L, then 3.5 mL= 3.5*10⁻³ L
So:
[tex]Molarity=\frac{6.09*10^{-5} moles}{3.5*10^{-3} L}[/tex]
Solving:
Molarity=0.0174 [tex]\frac{moles}{liter}[/tex]
The molarity is 0.0174 [tex]\frac{moles}{liter}[/tex]
