A chemist adds of a potassium permanganate solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of potassium permanganate the chemist has added to the flask

3.41 g

Explanation:

A chemist adds 260.0 mL of a 0.0832 M potassium permanganate solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of potassium permanganate the chemist has added to the flask.

Step 1: Given data

Step 2: Calculate the moles (n) of potassium permanganate added

We will use the following expression.

n = C × V

n = 0.0832 mol/L × 0.2600 L = 0.0216 mol

Step 3: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.0216 moles of potassium permanganate

The molar mass of potassium permanganate is 158.03 g/mol.

0.0216 mol × 158.03 g/mol = 3.41 g

the answer is either b or c

bcde is the incorrect answer it is a
