Answer:
The molarity of copper ions in the solution is also 0.0200 M.
Explanation:
To calculate the molarity of copper ions (Cu2+) in a 0.0200 M CuSO4 solution, we need to consider the molar mass and the stoichiometry of the compound.
The molar mass of CuSO4 is 159.61 g/mol. Therefore, in 0.0200 M CuSO4 solution, there are:
0.0200 mol/L * 159.61 g/mol = 3.1922 g/L of CuSO4
Since CuSO4 contains one copper ion (Cu2+) per molecule, the number of moles of copper ions in the solution is equal to the number of moles of CuSO4. Therefore, the molarity of copper ions in the solution is also 0.0200 M.
