What mass of potassium sulfate is needed to make 2500.0ml of 2.0m solution? (ANSWER THIS AND SHOW THE WORRR, AND EXPLAINNN IT) THIS ISSS 60 POIUNTS PLZZ TAKE IT SERIOSLY

Molarity

Chemists primarily need the concentration of solutions to be expressed in a way that accounts for the number of particles that react according to a particular chemical equation. Since percentage measurements are based on either mass or volume, they are generally not useful for chemical reactions. A concentration unit based on moles is preferable. The molarity (M) of a solution is the number of moles of solute dissolved in one liter of solution. To calculate the molarity of a solution, you divide the moles of solute by the volume of the solution expressed in liters.

Note that the volume is in liters of solution and not liters of solvent. When a molarity is reported, the unit is the symbol M and is read as “molar”. For example a solution labeled as 1.5 M NH 3 is read as “1.5 molar ammonia solution”.

Sample Problem: Calculating Molarity

A solution is prepared by dissolving 42.23 g of NH 4 Cl into enough water to make 500.0 mL of solution. Calculate its molarity.

Step 1: List the known quantities and plan the problem.

& underline{text{Known}} &&underline{text{Unknown}} \& text{mass}=42.23 text{g} NH_4Cl && text{molarity}= ? text{ M}\& text{molar mass} NH_4Cl=53.50 text{g} / text{mol} \& text{volume solution}=500.0 text{mL}=0.5000 text{L}

The mass of the ammonium chloride is first converted to moles. Then the molarity is calculated by dividing by liters. Note the given volume has been converted to liters.

Step 2: Solve.

42.23 text{ g } NH_4Cl times frac{1 text{ mol } NH_4Cl}{53.50 text{ g } NH_4Cl} &= 0.7893 text{ mol } NH_4Cl\frac{0.7893 text{ mol } NH_4Cl}{0.5000 text{ L}} &= 1.579 text{ M}

Step 3: Think about your result.

The molarity is 1.579 M, meaning that a liter of the solution would contain 1.579 mol NH 4 Cl. Four significant figures are appropriate.

In a laboratory situation, a chemist must frequently prepare a given volume of solutions of a known molarity. The task is to calculate the mass of the solute that is necessary. The molarity equation can be rearranged to solve for moles, which can then be converted to grams. See sample problem 16.3.

Sample Problem:

A chemist needs to prepare 3.00 L of a 0.250 M solution of potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ). What mass of KMnO 4 does she need to make the solution?

Step 1: List the known quantities and plan the problem.

Known

molarity = 0.250 M

volume = 3.00 L

molar mass KMnO 4 = 158.04 g/mol

Unknown

mass KMnO 4 = ? g

Moles of solute is calculated by multiplying molarity by liters. Then, moles is converted to grams.

Step 2: Solve.

text{mol KMnO}_4 = 0.250 text{ M KMnO}_4 times 3.00 text{ L} &= 0.750 text{ mol KMnO}_4\0.750 text{ mol KMnO}_4 times frac{158.04 text{ g KMnO}_4}{1 text{ mol KMnO}_4} &=119 text{ g KMnO}_4

Step 3: Think about your result.

When 119 g of potassium permanganate is dissolved into water to make 3.00 L of solution, the molarity is 0.250 M.

the answer is c i believe

answer: they produce more slow than unicellular organisms.
